Regarding Dara Gorman's request for information on Thomas Mulligan of Newry and 'the Watcher's" reply, I would be most grateful for any information on Thomas Mulligan as there may be a connection to my own ancestors from Armagh area.
Many thanks |

Hi to all in Newry! I am searching some family history on my mother's side, she was Eilish McCourt her mother was Christine Hogan Born Newry 1886. One of her sisters married a Cunningham and I think one of their daughters married Peter Woods the Milkman. They had two daughters Magella and Rosella. |
