McCahill & McCalliog
Drumgorman, Mountcharles, Co. Donegal -
searching for additional information on the McCahill family. My grandfather was John McCahill born 21 Jan 1901 in Drumgorman, Mountcharles, father James McCahill, Drumgorman, Mountcharles and mother Mary McCalliog of Salthill - marriage certificate dated 25 Jan 1897. I have the Griffiths Valuations for James McCahill from 1858 forward, and 1901 Census for Mountcharles listing James McCahill & family.
thanks, Kathleen

Nelis or McNelis - Meenbunone, Creeslough, Co. Donegal
Margaret Nelis (my grandma) was the daughter of Cecilia Boyle and Patrick Nelis from Creeslough.
She was baptized as McNelis on 28 Sept 1902. Michael Nelis and Mary Doherty were the parents of Patrick Nelis born 14 May 1865 registered in Milford Kilmacrenan. Cecilia Boyle's father was James Boyle, I believe that James was married to Cecilia Ferry.
thx, Kathleen
