I am trying to trace Andrew Coushnaghan's parents. I believe he had at least two brothers, John and Patrick. I am also trying to trace the parents of Anne Blue who married his son Andrew (who changed the family name to Cassidy), and the origins of Eward Mulgrew who married Margaret (Maggie) Cassidy

Hi Frank I just read your update on the cushnaghan/cassidy family my great grandfather was Patrick Cushnaghan changed his name to Peter Cassidy and married Mary Armstrong of Monkton Prestwick Scoland and my grandmother was their first child Annie Cassidy who married David Colville and my father is their first child Hugh Colville who married Helen Dunlop and I am their second child Audrey-May Thomson. Patrick Cassidy had four children with Mary - Annie, Jean, Peter and Andrew. I am in the same boat as you I cannot find any futher inforation on Anne Blue or the first Andrew Cushnaghan or why they changed their name. Have you found any further information
Audrey, please please email me directly at finnmac 2000 @ gmail.com. the family tree is at www.brighterdays.tribalpages.com email me for the password. I am in touch with C(o)ushnaghan descendants world-wide from Canada to Australia.
