Was your Great Grandmother (bridget roonian) from that area as well? Roonian is unsual, it could actually be Rooney, my Great Grandmother was a Rooney from Drumcashel. Lots of them around there.

Hi,Adrian,
Bridget Roonian came from county fermanagh.I have my grandad's birth certificate and Bridget's name on the birth certificate is Roonian,and also on my grandad's death certificate.He died in glasgow in 1944.The glasgow certificates have quite a lot of info on.I have been told that people with the surname Roonian and Mulrooney changed their name to Rooney about 100 years ago.
