Parents of ancestor

Sligo

Through Ancestry.ca I found my 8th great grandfather, Patrick Bartley, who was born in Sligo, Ireland in 1796. I found out that the surname Bartley is derived from the Scottish name McFarland. No matter where/how I look, I can't find anything about Patrick's parents - church records etc, in order to find the family line that goes back to Scotland. This has very quickly become an obsession for me. If there is ANYONE who can help me with this, you would have my absolute gratitude and I would ask that many Irish blessings would come your way. Thank you so much!! Theresa Rousseu

Yes, please do.  Our e-mail address is gerryrousseu@gmail.com

Just to clear something up, it is Gerry's name on the account, since it was his name on the credit card, but it's me, Theresa, who is doing the research.  I'm hoping to find everything I can as I want to present a double family tree to my folks for their anniversary at the end of May.  Any help would be very appreciated.  Cheers!

Theresa I'm travelling so on the iPad which is not as easy.

One at a time I'm afraid!

I assume McParlan was a form of Bartley; if not there's only 1 correct record
