NOTES
- Dollough
- This individual was buried as Ann Cannell, wife of Donald McYlrea, on 10th May 1602
- Two children - John & Margaret - still young enough to require supervisors
- Speculation: Did husband Donald remarry - Averick Quackin als Cry who died in 1625? I don't think so.... I have assigned Averick to the Ballatersin Donald Mylrea on the basis that Donald had a daughter named Annas who was born about 1600, and who inherited the family lands. If Annas belonged to the Dollough family, she woul have been mentioned in the will of either Donald (1631) or Annas Garrett (1602)
- Untangling the Mylrea lines in Ballaugh of those days is next to impossible with a severe lack of documentation, such as wills and parish records. The land records holdd out some hope if the entries hold enough detail
