This gravestone is at St. Patrick's Church
of Ireland, City of Armagh, Co. Armagh. It is on the upper level.
The Mary referred to in
the inscription on the gravestone beneath was Mary WILSON. She
married William MENARY sr. I do not know her father's name, but
her mother's name was Margaret FAIR
(SOURCE: a fragment of paper at Gilford Castle).
Her husband, William MENARY
sr. was the son of Alexander MENARY and Martha HERRON (d. aft 1817).
I do not have birth dates for these people.
William MENARY jr. (1838-1874)married Mary JACKSON.
When he died his only child, Mary MENARY, was a year and a half
old. She
later married James Francis WRIGHT and lived at Gilford Castle and
was the collector of much of the family history that appears on these
pages (a hearty post-humous thanks!).
Mary MENARY's great-grand-daughter
(shown in the second photo) also lived at Gilford Castle. Her mother,
Christine WRIGHT, has been the generous facilitator of the compilation
of much of this history.
