Looking for more information on Phoenix from Tullylish, Co. Down, Ireland.

My family tree says Boyd Bullock married Peggy (Margaret) Phoenix born possibly 1790ish. She had siblings "one of whom was a school teacher in Clare and the other a lawyer in Dublin". I don't know about the Dublin part, but there are indications there was a family member in Clare. Boyd is a common name in the Bullock family. One of the Bullocks was a lawyer and perhaps employed a Phoenix relative.

Boyd and Margaret's children were Mary Ann (our line), Isaac, Ezekiel, Thomas, Margaret, and ELizabeth. I have no information on the other children.

Also looking for information on Jane Phoenix, daughter of John, farmer in "Drumnaveille, Tullylish." She was probably born about 1820-1830 and married a Magowan.

I think we may have some common threads.

I have a Jane Phoenix born abt 1823, d.1887 who married William McGowan. I also have that she was the daughter of John Phoenix and Mary Tait, and that Jane died in Scotland. Her sibling George Phoenix who was a teacher in the Tullylish area. But I don't have a Peggy (Margaret) as their sibling. Do you think there is a connection here to your info? If so, I have much more I can share on this family.
