I am trying to trace twins James and Margaret Wray who were born between 1840 and 1870, in the Lisnaskea area of Co. Fermanagh.
Margaret was deaf and James was deaf and dumb.
Can anyone help with information ?

Do you know who their parents were?

How have you gotten back to them?

Researching:
Bagley, Millington, Morrey, Edwards, Sims, Weaver

Have you tried "Search all trees" under the Search button above?

If you find a possible match you can contact the tree owner to see if you have a connection.

Just delete the default message about looking at their tree and write your own message saying who you are looking for.

Welcome to the boards, Barry. Please give us all and any info that you have on them. Can you place their year of birth any more accurately - 30 years is quite a large time span.
