    Well, unless they spelt themselves differently, they weren't there in 1901. The only rural Conaghers are in Ballyshiel, Co. Down. It's not close enough to the border that you'd mistake it for Antrim.

    There's no end of McKinleys, mind you.

    derangedlemur Another version of this photograph gives "Conagher's farm, Co. Antrim Home of the McKinley's". Did they just rent from Conagher? There's a Conagher Bridge in Dervock...

    See notes on photo. Tractor is a bit fuzzy on Megazoom but looks like a Fordson Major. Exhaust pipe is outside bonnet on LH side. Dextas came through bonnet. Good write up on Railbuses if you click on above picture.
