Hi Daniel,

The closest match on www.rootsireland.ie/ for James McGinley born 1843 in Derry is 2 baptisms in 1841 (could be the same one twice)

rootsireland charges to view the full record so you would need to purchase some credit with them

It SHOULD give you the fther's name and sometimes has both

I went through the parishes and found that both records were from Long Tower R C so no need to buy both.

I couldn't find the marriage record on rootsireland

Hello,

 

I have found these death records for James and Jiley McGinley.  They are buried in Derry City Cemetery.

James McGinley of 9 Cable Street, Derry.  Born: Ramelton. Co. Donegal.  Age:  63  Died: 31 Dec, 1903.

Jiley McGinley of 9 Cable Street, Derry.  Born: Milford, Co. Donegal.  Age: 57.  Died: 11 Sept, 1899

I will check the local newspaper of the time for their death notices and get back to you in a few days.

All the best.
