A copy of Mrs. Smith's extensive charts showing the genealogy of these families is available at the Clara Newnam Library in Charleston, Missouri. A page has been started on Garvagh , Coleraine, County Londerry. Initially I have put up links to sites that relate in someway to Garvagh, or nearby communities, or people whose genealogy includes people from Garvagh, or Irish things of interest. If you know of sites to which we should link, please let me know. Other Irish ancestors of mine come from Belfast and Co Antrim.

Specifically we have Richard Courtenay who came to Ireland from France to start Braidwater Spinning, which I understand was the first linen mill of its type in Ireland. His daughter Anna married Thomas Lennox from Glasgow. Weknow they lived in or near Garvagh for some years. They had two daughters, Mary Jane Lennox was the oldest and Anna Courtenay Lennox, b 21 June 1880 in Belfast, was the younger. She seems to have immigrated to the US in 1895 at age 15.
