My
mom’s maiden name is spelled Maginley and our family is generally
from the Scranton, Pennsylvania area. I was wondering if anyone
else has seen this spelling and where it may have originated? My
great grandfather was Thomas Jefferson Maginley and he was born
around 1902. I was wondering if our family was also from Donegal?
I have a lot of Maginley cousins whose names appear to be commonly
used throughout generations as I’ve seen on this website and some
of the resemblances of the pictures that are posted and my family
are uncanny. I really enjoy researching my families’ roots and any
information would be much appreciated.

I
would like to compliment you on your web page for the McGinley Clan.
I live in Perth, Western Australia with strong family links to Donegal.
My
Grandmother was Rose McGinley and she married John Duffy in 1898
and then moved to Glascow for work and later (in 1912) migrated
to Perth, Western Australia. Rose
McGinley's father was Charles McGinley and her mother was Rose Boyle.
If any members of your clan have any information about my ancestors,
I would love to get it from them. I have a good history of the descendents
of Rose and John Duffy in Australia.

Looking
for any information on how the McGinleys got to Fanad (Clondavadog
parish). The townland of Ballymichael has numerous (appprox 6) McGinley
families going back as far as the Tithe Aplotments. There are a
few othe McGinley families scattered around the Parish also. There
is no mention of this territory on the clan website. It has been
suggested that they may have come across from Mevagh as it was a
noted clan location.

Brothers
Charles (b 1821), Patrick (b 1825) and Andrew Bernard McGinley (b1828)
all came to America from Ireland together in 1843. Brother Andrew
Bernard McGinley came as a stow-a-way on the same ship as his brothers.
By 1860 all three brothers are married with families and living
in St. Croix County, Wisconsin. Father's name may be John McGinley
- mother unknown. They all came from County Donegal. Looking for
information about family who did not immigrate and other siblings
as well.

Would
appreciate any information about Henry McGinley (probably died about
1830ish), married to Catherine Theresa Campbell, who were parents
of Michael, Cornelius, Thomas Colin, Sarah and possibly a Bridget.
Cornelius emigrated from the Killybegs area to Kingston, New York
area (then Horicon and Adirondack, New York) about 1846, later joined
by wife Sarah Ellen Duncan and son Patrick. Sarah also emigrated
at some point and settled in New York City. Her daughter, Sara,
was the mother of a Father Robert McCormick. Would like to know
anything about the above, but especially Henry and Catherine. Thanks.

I'm
trying to find out about my great great grandparents. My great
great grandfather was James McGinley, born in Ireland about 1841.
He lived most of his adult life in Port Glasgow, Scotland, and
had two daughters: Mary and Bridget. He was either married to
Sarah or Dorothea Sweenie (or both!), as both names show up in
the records at various times. She could also have been 'Sarah
Dorothea' or 'Dorothea Sarah', who went by either first or second
name at various times. She (or they) was also born in Ireland,
and spent her adult life in Port Glasgow.
Their
daughter Bridget married David McClanaghan and they had a son
call Bernard, born in Port Glasgow in 1917, who lived most of
his life in Leeds.
Thanks
for any help you can give me.
