Thanx hoping to hear from you soon.

Ann McQuilkin Murray drowning

marysh2432 — 2008-06-06 23:14:49Z

Ann McQuilkin Murray was born in Rathlin Island Ireland around 1835. She married James Murray in Scotland. It looks as if the lived in Port Glasgow, but on June 17, 1884, her body was found across the River Clyde in Dumbarton. I have tried to research this, but have not been able to find any news articles about it. Also, James and Ann were married for over 20 years,but I have not been able to find any children listed for the two of them, any information or advice would be greatly appreciate.

Thanks,

Cathy

I was just talking to my dad about Elizabeth. He didn't know about the first marriage (He was born in 1928), but he remembers "Uncle Murray" making him a baseball bat and sending packages at Christmas. He said that around 1946 or 47 he went to Tribune to a bank. A man at the bank heard that his name was Course. The man told him that the Martins had moved to Missouri. Hope that helps. Thank you for the first marriage information.

Coursey / DeCoursey surname Y-DNA Project

duinhir — 2006-09-30 21:00:19Z

There is a newly started Y-DNA Project for the Coursey/DeCoursey surnames. It is open to all males with any variation of the two surnames as well as those who believe that they are descended from a Coursey or DeCoursey. (Females can participate by sponsoring the testing of a male relative.)

The main goals of the project are to learn more about the origins and history of the surnames, identify different family lines and help researchers make connections (and hopefully break through a few brick walls!).

Examples of surname variations: Coursey, Corsey, Courcey, Courcy, Course, Corse, DeCoursey, de Courcey, de Courcy, DeCorsey, DeCourcey, DeCourcy, DeCourse

For more information visit the project website at:
http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/c/coursey

Anyone with questions about the project or DNA testing is welcome to email me at courseydna "at" gmail.com

All prospective participants are welcome!

COURSE

GDCOURSE — 2001-06-26 11:55:54Z

There may be a connection with France but I have
been unable to find it as French records would be
difficult to find(the priest of the local church
in Course has no know knowledge of the surname Course
in the area) .There is however a reference to
a HARMON COURSE listed in a register of aliens
living in London in the 16 Century but most
of the Courses seem to stem from Cambridge or
Bedford area around 1700.My origins are Cambridge.
