Paul,
I did some research while in Ireland this week.I have conflicting information on Rose Ann Rafferty's parents names.I have obtained her birth record, it states she was born May 6, 1872.Her father is Peter, a labourer and his wife is Mary (formerly Fairon).This was in the Index to Birth Registerd in Ireland 1872 book.This was registered in the District of Loughgall, County of Armagh on May 22, 1872.
I also went back as far as they had records for, searching for the marriage record of Peter and Mary (Fairon) Rafferty.There was no record from 1864-1872 so I am assuming they were married before 1864.
I also searched numerous graveyards to no avail.Unfortunatly, I found the above information AFTER I was in the Northern Ireland area, and was searching graveyards that may have been too far north in Co. Omagh.I did find several Rafferty's; however none that I can connect to Rose Ann.
Please let me know where/how you came about her parents names of Charles and Susan, as well as her birthdate.She was the ONLY Rose Ann Rafferty in the birth records for 1872 so I am assuming she is the right one.
Thanks Paul, and I look forward to hearing from you!
Brenda
