Traynor Formoyle Tedavnet

My grandmother Susan Traynor who died before I was born according to birth records was born in 1885 in Formoyle, Tedavnet district of Scotstown in County Monaghan. At a young age with her mother & sisters she emigrated to North West England where she later married & lived the rest of her life.

My niece who lives in New Zealand & whom my mother always said resembled my grandmother wants to visit her birthplace later this year. We will come in September & would like to find more about my grandmother’s early years in Ireland of which we know nothing. It seems Traynor is a common name in Monaghan. Her mother was Bridget (Biddy) né Griffin. Her father was James (Michael) Traynor. Any help with this would be much appreciated.
