I am interested in a George McChesney who appears in a will index at PRONI for Drumhillah in 1807 (Co Cavan, Knockbride Parish). I descend from John McChesney and Amelia Rusk, who belonged to Glaseck Presbyterian Church. I believe the Rusks were from Shercock. Any info would be appreciated.

Hi Cyn, there are still a number of mcChesney families in the area, you could write to Brendan McChesney in Drumhilla, Shercock, Co. Cavan.. There is a Joe Rusk in Galbolie Bailieborough, if you wish to write to him , I dont know if any of them would have a family tree done, but you never know.. Regards Carmel
