Trying to track down ancestors in Ulster.
We have a ancestor Edward Armstrong Hanna born in Ulster about 1825. Father John Hanna.
Location is not clear - could be Aughalor in Country Fermanagh. (Can't find an Aughalor on the maps but it is probably a phonetic speeling as written by an Englishman). On another record his birthplace is given as Keedy - which is on the maps.
We assume that his father or another ancestor was married to an Armstrong. Possibly it was his grandmother's maiden name.
Edward Armstrong Hanna joined the army and was killed in S Africa in 1851. We have no information about any other Hanna brothers/sisters. Although he was born in Ulster, it is just possible his family emigrated to the Manchester (Lancashire) area.
A close family friend of the time was John Hargan who also came from Ulster. We don't know whether they came from the same place or just got to know each other after they had left.
Has anyone come across this family during their research ? Or more generally a marriage between a Hanna and an Armstrong in Ulster at around the right time ? Or the presence of Hannas, Armstrongs and Hargans at the right time ?
