Tring to find any info on my maternal side of the family. I have found 5-6 variations of surname Melarvie. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Know they were in Scotland for a time at the beginning of potato famine. 1 relative Margaret Melarvie was a nun whom died in a nunnery. Thank you for the help Jon Adams Bismarck, ND, USA
Hello Jon, I searched various sites both free and subscription under the listed names and variants, only one possible and I used all Ireland too. There is a death in Mohill in 1869 of a DANIEL MILLERVEY unfortunately the cert is not visible but can be ordered onlne for very little, not the full cert but a copy of the register entry, should be about $5 or less by email. Mohill is the registration district but is in Leitrim but also covers North Longford, I searched north Longford Griffiths for the name but saw none under Mohill, Longford. There are many names but none close.
Under civil records here is where it is but no info, church records are not on this site for the area. https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/
I searched back to 1835 and got nothing else under the name at all, wonder about that, is there a more relevant spelling.
Regards
Pat
