Sarah Canavan nee Blair Tyrone 1865
I am trying to trace Sarah Blair who married my g grandfather Mick Canavan on 26.10.1865
They had two children John and Sarah. Sarah snr died and her husband remarried.
I think Sarah had brothers Thomas and Henry Blair at least one of whom visited USA possibly Philadelphia for a period before returning to Ireland. This Blair gave his nephew John Ganavan ( my grandfather) money to by an ancient house Belville at Gortnaglough about 5 miles from Coalisland Co Tyrone in 1924.
Mick Canavan came from the townland of Carnan and we think Sarah Blair came from either Carnan or Lenadremnagh.
I haven't found any info on Blairs in Tyrone though I did see the Guest book of whaat appeared to be a Blairweb site in Tyrone. However the site itself wasn't available.
Many thanks for any help.
