Hello there
I'm after information about
Hugh Fegan b c1818 Clonduff, Co Down,
His wife Mary nee Loughlin.
I understand there were two Loughlin families there at that time.
I have been told the following.
They married on the Isle of Man 13 May 1837
Their dau Sarah was b or bapt IOM 13 Feb 1838
Their son Hugh was bapt IOM 23 Jun 1839
I believe there was a flax industry there at that time and suspect Hugh was involved in that.
Hugh junior does not appear with the family in Torquay and in 1851, they had a second Hugh, so I suspect he died.
Sarah doesn't appear with he mother and father in Devon in June at the time of the 41 census, but appears aged 13, b Douglas IOM in the 51 in Union Street, Torquay.
I'd be much obliged if some kind person could have a look at either the original entries or the film of the Catholic records to find any more info.
Thank you and best wishes
Mark
