Has anyone ever heard of (excluding GT Ridlon's Riddell book) a parish called Ballaymeath or Balleymeath in Londonderry, Northern Ireland? The date would be 1641: Robert Riddell. I have been looking for Ballaymeath for 20 years and have not found it yet!

Annemarie,
Yes, I need help with my research in Co. Cork for the pre -famine years. I live in Spain. I'm looking into the area between Cork City and Cape Clear. My gg grandmother came from Sherkin Island, near Baltimore. She was from the Goslin/Gosnell(Gosnold) family. She married Joseph Regan from Co. Cork abt. 1850. They emmigrated in 1851 on the Bark Swift bound for Boston. I'm trying to find where the Regans are from. Dianne from Spain

Conboy, Ballincurry, Roscommon, Ireland. We have 4 or 5 letters from there in the mid 1800's.

This Jeremiah-William thing has me so stumped that after looking at the website What's In a Name, which is more oriented towards Scotland, I decided to order The Oxford Dictionary of English Christian Names just to see what other pitfalls I might encounter.

That would make sense that William would go more with C of I families.

But there was a William Collins who witnessed my very Catholic Greatgranddad's and Greatgrandmom's wedding. He was probably the groom's oldest brother. Maybe a mysterious family black sheep?!? :) Hmm.
