Hello again Teresa,

Have looked a little further at your DONAGHEY and SHAW forebears…………..

The following data comes from County Tyrone Genealogy Research 
http://www.cotyroneireland.com/
The marriage of JAMES DONAGHEY and ISABELLA SHAW is recorded in the registers 
of 2ND DONAGHEADY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH on November 11 1842 – see Faye Logue’s 
file: 
http://www.cotyroneireland.com/marriages/2nd-Donagheady-Presbyterian-Church-Marriages-1838-1845.html

It is also possible to locate further DONOHY-HENRY and SHAW-YOUNG marriages 
from the registers of this church, and perhaps more which will add to your 
research from a collaboration of Faye and me:

2ND DONAGHEADY BAPTISMS 1838-1901 (another file compiled by Faye) the register 
records some of the children on your list, but also others

>minister’s stipend

Hoping this gives you an insight into the lives of your emigrant forebears and 
possibly a considerably expanded family tree.

Hello Teresa,



I am no great shakes at this, but suggest you should be looking at Donagheady 
parish, in the very north of County Tyrone (bordering Co. Londonderry).



ISABELLA DONAGHEY was born June 5 1866 at Tyboe, Donagheady parish, Co. Tyrone 
to JAMES DONAGHEY & ISABELLA (nee SHAW) and registered at Dunamanna in the 
Union of Strabane by her father, June 11 1866

You will find a description of their home:

Taboe (pronounced T’bo) Glebe, Donagheady

William SHAW, John SHAW & James DONAGHY are recorded occupying very humble 
cottages, each with an annual valuation of only five shillings.



There is a great local website that will be useful to your research. Although 
being a very Irish surname, the Donaghys seem to be mostly Church of Ireland 
and Presbyterian.

Hope this is a useful commencement and all the best for your search,
