SURNAME(S): DOUGAN, YARROW
QUERY:
Searching for information on my
great-grandparents who emigrated from Cookstown, County Tyrone to America in 1863. My
great-grandmother, Mary Jane Yarrow, was born in Cookstown March 18, 1834. She married my
great-grandfather, William T. Dougan there. He was born in Scotland May 23, 1833 and moved
to Cookstown as a child. Six children were born in Cookstown before the family left for
USA: William J./b. 1854; Kennedy/b. January 1856; Martha/b. 1858; Thompson/b. about 1860;
Julia/born July 31, 1861; and Thomas W./born June 19, 1863. William was a flour miller in
Missouri, USA and I believe that was his profession in Cookstown. Mary Jane's father was
named John Yarrow. The family was Protestant. Have been able to find them on ship
manifests.
Any information would be greatly appreciated and
will gladly share information.

We have recently found distant relatives in
America and have decided to trace our name back as far as possible. My father has in his
possession a copy of the birth certificate of his grandfather whose name was John Kelly Dorragh
born 1872 and registered in Castlederg, I think, will find out for proper and e-mail again
at a later stage. Although birth certificate shows father as Robert Dorragh and mother as Maria
Kelly we are at the at a loss if he was only child as this is the only information we
have. We
presume that there must have been other brothers, otherwise the name would not have got to
America.
Any information you can give me would be most grateful even
if it is just that where do we go from here.
Take care

HOLLYWOOD Surname - Looking for information
regarding the family of John Hollywood, born 26 Oct 1829 in Termommaquirk. His
parents were Thomas Hollywood and Jane MCMAHON. John married Catherine HOLLYWOOD
(maiden name same as married name) who was born in Townland Inishative. I have no date for
their marriage. However during the 1880s (I believe 1889 but perhaps as early as 1882)
they immigrated to the United States and eventually settled in Philadelphia, PA. The
marriage produced many children: Mary (b. 24 Feb 1865), Kate Agnes (b. 15 Aug 1866), John
(b. June 1870), Margaret (b. 13 Jul 1875), Helen (b. unknown), Madeline (b. Feb 1877),

husband and wife sometimes many years before they could afford the marriage rites. Makes

Belfast was the port of departure. Any thoughts or assistance on this sojourn would be

My g-g-grandfather was JAMES MCSORLEY, born in County
Tyrone on June 1813 (based on tombstone inscription). Likely location in
Ireland: Moneygar Townlands, parish of Kilskeery, although this is not
confirmed.
Family oral history is that James and (some of) brothers
emigrated to North America through Philadelphia. James is the only brother known (at
this time) to have subsequently emigrated to Canada.
Based on daughter CATHERINE's baptism record, have placed
James in Ontario, Canada in 1842, married to a MATILDA HART, also born in
Ireland (c. 1825).
Catherine (b. October 1842) was James & Matilda's
oldest daughter; JAMES (b. June 1844) was James & Matilda's oldest son.
Have also placed the following adult McSorleys in the same
location during the same time period: HUGH, JOHN (possibly 2-3 Johns), MARY,
CATHERINE and SARAH. Think it possible that JAMES and MARY may be siblings,
but family relationship among other named McSorleys not substantiated.
MARY MCSORLEY was married to an ANTHONY HIGGINS, with one
daughter born in Ireland prior to emigrating: MARY, c. 1840. JOHN, b. 1843 in
Ontario, was Mary & Anthony's oldest son.
Common boys' names in family: JAMES, THOMAS, WILLIAM,
EDWARD, CHARLES.
Common girls' names in family: CATHERINE, MARY,
ELLEN, MARGARET (MARGUERITE?).
Searching for James' siblings and parents, but any other
assistance/information on any of these names is welcome.

McLaughlan. Robert died in Dumbarton, Scotland 19.04.1876. Ellen died 15.10.1879. Robert's
forbears were employed by the Duke of Abercorn. His brother Thomas died in New York in
1865 aged 35 and another brother Charles dies in Havana, Cuba in 1865 aged 32. Another
brother, James outlived him. I would like to know who Robert's parents were and where they
originated from.
