[4qd-bannvalley] Craigall Craigala and Craiglea

[4qd-bannvalley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Lunney Family)]

Yes, undoubtedly the same family; it's no distance between Culnaman  
and Craigall; two or three miles. Samuel is a great Morell name; even  
present day Morells in Garvagh use it I believe. It's even possible  
it was the same man, I suppose; certainly a generation later in the  
1860s, people came and went to Scotland; there were steam boats  
regularly from Derry and even from Portrush. There is a strong  
tradition of migrant and even seasonal movements back and forth;  
certainly from Donegal that is well known, and it may hav happened  
from Derry as well. My great great aunt's husband is listed in the  
church record in Moneydig as an engine driver from Glasgow when he  
was back in NI to marry; they lived in Glasgow for some time, but she  
came back to Culnaman as an elderly woman.

Are the Morells originally Huguenot?
