McMenamin Ancestors

My great grand parents were John & Katherine McMenamin.

John & Katherine were witnesses at the wedding of Hugh Breslin and Elizabeth McMenamin 0n 23 Nov 1879 in Donaghmore. Microfilm MIC ID/62 Public Records Office, Belfast, NI.

Jon & Katherine were sponsors at the baptism of Catherine McMenamin, daughter of Thomas Mcmenamin and Magery McCauley 11 September 1880. This was at St. Eugene’s RC Church, Glenock, Ardstraw East Diocese of Derry. Priest was J. O’Doherty. Baptismal Ref #A/1878/47.

They emigrated to the US in the 1880s to city of Philadelphia.

John returned to Ireland but Katherine remained with her family.

I'm not sure what you have researched or what you are looking for or what you have researched. My geat grandmother was born in Newtownstewart and we visited there in August. St. Eugene's is a little out of the town but it was where they attended.

When did they emigrate? My great grandmother had a younger brother who emigrated to Philadelphia for the first time about 1886.
