Looking for information on the families of Elizabeth Quinn and Joseph Scott Mills who were married on 25 Aug 1846 in this parish. Moved to Astabula, Ohio where they raised their faimly. My GGrandmother Alice Lucinda Mills Brainard was their youngest daughter.
Robin:
There is an 1846 Presbyterian church marriage record for a Joseph Mills and Elizabeth Quinn on www.rootsireland.ie This is a pay site to look at the record and I don't know if there would be any other information that would help you.
The 1861 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing shows a Samuel Mills in Terrytole townland. There was also a James Quinn in Tattindonagh townland. Not sure how these two are related to Elizabeth and Joseph.
