NOTES

1. No surviving record as to whom Margaret might have married although we know he was a Mylrea
2. No surviving burial record Margaret but her will places burial at 4th April 1602 (burial records for Michael begin in 1610)
3. Presumably no surviving husband because uncles (including John Mc ylrea) named as supervisors
4. No evidence found as to how this family fits within the broader Michael Mylrea clan
