Clonleigh Parish Church (St. Lugadius' Church of Ireland) Lifford, Co. Donegal, Ireland Marriages 1845-70

Registration District of Strabane (that section within Co. Donegal)

Earliest registers destroyed in Dublin, 1922. Surviving Clonleigh registers have been microfilmed by PRONI, Belfast: Baptisms 1872-1983; Marriages 1845-1896; Burials 1877-1983; Confirmation Register 1863-1983; Sustenation Fund Account Book 1870-73 (PRONI Ref. MIC.1/179)

Lifford lies on the western bank of the River Foyle in Co. Donegal across from Strabane in Co. Tyrone; at various times, many folk resided in and/ or found work in both places. Emigrants from Lifford often stated Strabane as their native place as it was the major post and market town in the North-West of Ulster

 

The condition of the original records and the quality of filming make transcription challenging and at times difficult. Where possible the Clonleigh, Camus, Urney and Ardstraw tithe applotment books and Griffiths Valuation (1858) have been consulted for confirmation of families and townland addresses. Original spelling has been retained.
