I am trying to trace relatives ofMargaret Leckey and Thomas Ferguson.
I've traced my family back to John Leckey and Charlotte Mallard who married c1853. My connection is their daughter Margaret Leckey (Lackey) born 5 May 1860 Ballymackeown, Down, Ireland. Other children of John & Charlotte were Eliza, Thomas, Emily.
Margaret married Thomas Ferguson (Fergusson) from Co Sligo and had 1st child Elizabeth in Ireland before moving to Preston, Lancashire, England. Their other children were John A, and twins Margaret & Thomas S born Dec 1886. Margaret was my grandmother who married Harry Hogg in 1911 in Preston.
Thomas Ferguson and sons moved to Fleetwood/Blackpool area in early 1900's. I believe they were tailors.
I have also found a Margaret Leckie b 6 Jan 1862 Magheralin, Down parents Samuel Leckie & Rose Ferguson.
Hope someone can assist with the Irish connection.
