HUGH HENRY

HUGH HENRY

Gender
Male

There is a new familysearch.org  reference to Clonfeacle, County Tyrone, as the possible birthplace of Hugh Henry and his wife Mary Ann Monford. I thought that it was more likely to be Ballybay, Monaghan for Hugh at least. Their first child a daughter Jane was baptised there in 1824 but by 1826 they were in Donegore, Antrim.

Has anyone any knowledge of any HENRY people in Clonfeacle c 1800 to 1810?  I think this is an anomaly but I am happy to be surprised!

    Travelling Folk in the 1930s

    <p>Between 1937 and 1939, primary school pupils across the Republic of Ireland interviewed the elderly in their neighborhood to collect and record local stories and folklore from the 19th century. "The Schools Collection" as it became known is held by the Dúchas Folklore Collection in UCD and is and has been digitized online at duchas.ie. One of the topics schoolchildren were asked to write about were "Travelling Folk" or An Lucht Siúil. </p> <p>Here is a selection of what "settled" children wrote about travelers in the late 1930s.</p>
