Hi,
I'm trying to find out when my 3 x great grandfather George Telford/Tedford was born/came from. I know he married on 27 Nov 1829 at St Paul's church, Tartaraghan to Abigail Benson. He was a Farmer/Weaver, and he died on 9 Mar 1884 in Derrykeevan, Armagh.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks,
Daryl

Hi Clare,
No, I'm afraid I haven't found out anything about George Tedford apart from that he's buried in St. Paul's graveyard in Tartaraghan along with his wife Abigail. I can't seem to find out if he came from Derrykeeran/Derrykeevan area or outwith the parish.
I was thinking of visiting PRONI (I live in Glasgow) to see if I could find any info there, but I'm not sure if I'd find any records regarding Tartaraghan.
Regards,
Daryl
Hi Daryl
It might be a good idea to contact PRONI first as it will give you a better idea what they might be able to provide. Their family and local history records are listed here:
