Looking for Descendants- Harrington/Scally
Hi! I'm new to this and hope I haven't posted this twice...
I'm looking for descendants of James Harrington (d 1889 Islandahoe) and Catherine Scally Harrington (d 1890 Islandahoe). They had several children. I am descended from their son Henry (d 1898 in Ballycastle) and Frances McGrotty Harrington (d 1888 in Ballymoney). Henry and Fanny were married 1 Dec 1875 at Derrykeighan. They, too, had several children one of whom was my grandfather, John Henry Harrington (b 29 Jul 1883 in Ballyratahan).
James and Catherine's son, Samuel, was married at Roseyards and is also buried there with his wife and young son.
When Henry and Fanny had both passed, at least two of their children were taken in by Henry's brother, George, and his wife, Julia Mann. They eventually moved to New York. Both Henry and John Henry were Masons.
John Henry married Caroline Nelson in 1911. They had three children - Henry Byron, Frederick Robert and Dorothy Jane. I am the daughter of Dorothy Jane.
John Henry had a sister named Sarah Frances Harrington who stayed in Ireland and married James Young. Perhaps descendants of any of these folks are interested in family history and will happen upon this post.
