looking for any info on a John Farley of Mullalongfield, Benburb parish of clonfeacle. he was a farmer.
he had a son Francis who was a carpenter. the son was born 1860, so presume John Farley was born c1840.

also looking for Owen McNicholl, again a farmer - of Drain, Benburb -parish of clonfeacle. he had daughters catherine and Martha. catherine born 1863 and martha c1865. think Owen the father was born 1840.

Got marriage certificate of Francis Farley & Catherine Mc Nicholl. - witnesses are no relation that i can see ( Henry Kelly & James Moore)


father of francis is John Farley of mullalongfield - a farmer.
father of catherine is Owen McNicholl, a farmer of drain.

catherine was 19 and francis was 22, a carpenter.

i have certificate and wondered where i go next for info.
