Looking for any Dumican's with interest in tracing family tree. Gone back to 1790 County Down but unfortunately don't know a specific area. Think it may be in Newtonwards? but not sure. The last relative found is Hugh Dumican born circa 1790 in Down. |

Currently tracing my family tree - quite straight forward until about 1840, then things become rather difficult. Anyone that can shed a little light on tracing people further back than that - please speak up! Great web site - will send some information regarding two of my Great Uncles who fought in WW1. Scott |

Hi Re: McCartney Family Tree Very interesting site. This is a message for User 474. My name is Carmel McCartney. I am a native of Gortnaghey, Dungiven, County Derry. There was a post on a Gortnaghey Website stating that your Grandfather, Henry was born in 1894 in Gortnaghey, Dungiven. Since Gortnaghey is only a wee hamlet, I feel that your Grandfather must be related to my Grandfather, Michael McCartney, whose Father was Charles McCartney. Any information you can give me would be very much appreciated. Many thanks. Carmel |
