I am interested in tracing my wife's GG parents Elizabeth Beatty(ie) and John Crozier who must have married c 1820 in Fermanagh. Ballinmallarad has been mentioned by the family, but have been unable to trace where they went to, or when they died.
Two childen Cecelia, born c 1824 and Andew born c 1834 migrated to Australia in teh 1850's.

There was also a John and Elizabeth late 1790's early 1800's. No way to tell if any of the above was child of Elizabeth Beatty. Clearly more than one couple.

Best guess would be John was not from Magheraculmoney and they moved to his location after marriage or he may have been a farm worker or tradesman/craftsman and moved where the work was. Plenty of Croziers in the area so not an easy task, to locate your specific couple.
No trace of any you mention in Magheracross C of I, in Ballinamallard.

Warren, are you still seeking John Beattie Crozier and his wife?
I am in Canada, another avid genealogist and I are developing numerous Crozier family trees, and we do have some Beattie / Beatty people in the tree. I also just ran across an article about 'the famous' (?) John Beattie Crozier who, it says, was born in Galt, Ontario 1849 because his parents (who are NOT named!) came to Canada on the day of their marriage.
Could we correspond, please?
Jean Crozier
