Visited Altinure Townland last summer - home in early 1800’s to Patrick Maguire and Philip Gillice/Bridget Magauran. Their children Hugh Maguire and Rose Gillice married. The latter were my 2nd great grandparents. Family moved to Philadelphia in 1860’s.

As I know, Patrick Maguire (1783–1860): Patrick Maguire, your ancestor, was born in Glangevlin, County Cavan, Ireland. His life spanned from 1783 to 18601. He played a pivotal role in your family lineage.
Philip Maguire (1380–1470): Going further back, there’s an intriguing connection to Philip Maguire. Born around 1380 in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, Philip was the son of King Thomas Mor Gilladeere Maguire and Margaret O’Neill. He lived to the impressive age of 91 and passed away in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Ireland2.
Hugh Maguire and Rose Gillice: Your 2nd great-grandparents, Hugh Maguire and Rose Gillice, married in Altinure Townland. Their union represents a beautiful chapter in your family’s story.
