DEED 457 368 300509

1779 Oct 8

 

McCLELLAND-BARTLEY 27th Aug 1793 at 10 forenoon.

 

NOTE:

  • There were likely other business and familial relationships between the McCLELLANDs (aka McCLELAN aka McCLELLAN...). For example, in 1740, a Jane McCLELLAN married a Robert BARTLEY. SOURCE: Clogher Marriage records.
  • The BARTLEY family (also subject to several variant spellings) was also a family that generated a significant number of business and family connections with the core family tree that I am pursuing (relations of Sir Thomas JACKSON).SEE: file:///C:/Users/Sharon/Documents/Webstuff/theSilverBowl2/familytree/BartleyTree_1-4.htm

John HUMPHREYS[11].



[1] Francis McCLELLAND. I don’t know how he fits in.

·         NOTE: In 1744, a Francis McCLELAN married a Grizel CAMPBELL. SOURCE: Clogher Marriage Bonds.

·         In 1716, a Robert BARTLEY married a Jane McCLELLAND. Clogher.

[2] Archibald McCLELLAND

[3] Annamacneill is a townland in the Parish of Tullycorbet. I am not sure if this is it. The word in the Memorial looked like “Annamcneol”, but there is a significant McCLELLAND presence in the townland still by the time of Griffiths, hence my hunch..

[4] Hugh BARTLEY d. 1803. Son of George BARTLEY & Margaret ORR

[5] Lossett. There are four townlands named Lossett. Going by BARTLEY holdings registered at the time of Griffiths (James BARTLEY & Margaret BARTLEY), I would suspect the Paris of Kilmore, Co. Monaghan is it.

[6] Esther BARTLEY. I suspect that I have an error in the family tree as it stands right now as I have the wife of Hugh BARTLEY to be Agnes WILSON. There is a reference in 1791 in DEED 440 473 284746 to Agnes BARTLEY otherwise WILSON. NOTE: I am adding Esther as a wife in the family tree and will leave Agnes where she is until I learn more. Agnes was possibly a half sister of Hugh BARTLEY, since his mother was first married to Alexander WILSON.

[7] James JOHNSTON

[8] Joseph McCLELLAND

[9] Corlay aka Corlea, Parish of Tullycorbet, Co. Monaghan

[10] James LUKEY

[11] John HUMPHREYS
