Hi

I was wondering if anyone can help me pleae - I am down to the last two lines in my tree, my dads fathers line,and my mums mums line,

i am having trouble with the MacDermott family tree as obviously being an irish line details are hard to find but i know there are some smart little cookies on here who will possibly know

I am looking for any details of a marriage between William MacDermott and his wife Josephine (surname unknown).

i do know they were both born in about 1910. They did later go on to have two daughters Margaret Mary MacDermott (born 4 December 1937) and Helen MacDermott.

I have no other details on them other than Margaret was born in the Limavady area of Ireland.

I know these detaisl are very vague but would anyone be able to help me please??

Re 1930 Inishowen marriage

Sadly not the correct one:

William McDermott married Susan Kane

And...
Mary Josephine Harley married Jeremiah McCallion

Our family is from the Limavady area so that would make sense.
