Caughey/McComb

I've located my great grandparents and great great grandparents in the 1901 and 1911 census. But then lost track. They lived in Ballynahinch and Drumnaness.

Daniel Caughey 1827-1908, don't know if he had sisters or brothers

Margaret Flinn/Flynn -Daniel's wife don't know what happened to her after 1901 listed in census

Catharine Caughey  1853 -? was deaf and dumb as listed in 1901 census, no other information

James Caughey 1888 - 1962 emigrated to Brooklyn, NY, died in March 1962

William Caughey 185?-? listed in 1901 census worked in linen factory, no further records

Mary Caughey (nee: McComb) Williams wife 185?-? listed in 1911 census as Caughy, she was from Drumaness. They may have had two other sons, Hugh Caughey born 1877 and Daniel Caughey born 1876  no further records. Mary McComb's father's name was Robert McComb

Mary Caughey 1884-? listed in 1911 census as Caughy, may have married John McNamara in 1922 and emigrated to Brooklyn, but no records of this.  John McNamara was from Ballylone/Ballynahinch

Joseph Caughey 1892-? He worked in linen factory, no further records.

I would greatly appreciate any other information you may be able to find.

Unfortunately, no I haven't.  Would love to know what happen to Joseph Caughey/Caughey, and any other information.

I found out that my great uncle Joseph Caughey born March 1892 had died in December 1940 Drumaness, Down Northern Ireland.  His wife was Mary Catherine (Cassie) was born in April 1905, she died in December 1945.  I know they had a daughter, Winifred.  I believe she had another daughter but don't know the name.  I hope this  information is of help to someone.
