I am looking for help to find William Conaghan from about 1770 in Ireland possibly Donegal. William was a farmer and married Helen Docherty and had a son John(1791-1866).John moved to Glasgow(170 Saltmarket) and was a Master Flesher(butcher), He married Margaret Ford(1828-1878)and they had three children. If anyone has any information for William or where to look in Ireland then please contact me.

There were Conaghan families living in the Parish of Glencolumbkille in southwest Donegal.

Records were almost non-existant before 1864.

We are at a loss now as on some records we have Donegal but on an 1855 Scottish death record John Conaghan states he was born in Co. Derry. My Gr.Uncle remembers talk of Keadue which is in Donegal but as I say we have to have proof to know where to start looking.
