• Notes

  Samuel John McQUigg of Islandcarragh, lives in a house built in 1892 on a farm repurchased by the McQuigg family. The McQuigg who farmed here emigrated and sold to Thomspons (the same Thompson as James Maye Thompson of Bushmills Road), who sold to Logue, who resold to the McQuiggs who farmed on the opposite side of the road. This latter farm was never bought or sold since the McQuiggs came to Islandcarragh. His uncles James and Moore inherited a farm at Senirl from their father. Moore McQuigg emigrated to Kalzmazoo where he built in 1929 the fine First Presbyterian Church in this city at a cost of $375,000. James McQuigg sold senirl to Henry McNickle and bought a farm at Ballyhunsley from Mrs. McVicker who married his brother Samuel of Islandcarragh. The Ballyhunsley farm is now Robert Bleakley's The McQuiggs of Ballyclough were the same family. The mcQUigg farms in Islandcarragh and Ballyclough marched one another, and there was a path across the fields between the two farmsteads. The line of this path can still be traced. A Samuel McQuigg of Ballyclough was married to a Lyle of Carncoggie; his grandson William John led he singing in the old Presbyterian church of Benarden or Carcoggie. A Miss Dyson, a missionary in Egypt, is descended from the McQuiggs of Ballyclough. The McQuiggs of Berehill were also the same family. The Ballyclough farm is now Cochranes: Cochranes originally came from the Limavady district. Another related McQuigg family was McQuigg of Ballyrock; this farm is now owned by Robert Walker of Ballyrock.
