I am pleased to have tracked my mother's family back this far, but I am still interested in finding any history or relatives in this area.
Thank you for any information or hints you can provide.

My great grandfather Godfrey Alexander Quinn was born in or around Caledon in 1854/55. His father James Quinn worked as a land steward on the Caledon Estate (thus my g grandfather's middle name). I cannot find his baptism in the local churches. Anyone have any information on these Quinns? There was also a brother David. As far as I know they were Church of Ireland - they were when they lived later in Belfast certainly.

Brilliant site I lived in Caledon briefly in the early 70's and went to Churchill Primary School. Reading all the comments on this excellent site is making fond memories flood back. It's a beautiful wee village and the folk there were wonderful. Loved the primary school and remember fondly Miss McCullough and Mrs McCabe the 2 teachers. Due to my Father's work we had to move to the big smoke and my new school tried to put me back a year as they thought what did she learn in a wee 2 room country school. She learn lots passed her 11 plus and ended up at uni all thanks to being taught one on one by Mrs Mccabe. Cheers Caledon alway remembered fondly.

Hi, Great site, I am researching my family that I have found in Caledon, William Lyall - I think was at Caledon Hill, Margaret Lyall (nee Tynan Gordon)- wife, daughters Jane Lyall married John Alexander, and Anne Lyall who I think married William Naye Landlord (possibly) of the Arms Hotel, if any names ring a bell I wouldn't be really grateful for any details. I have these details from the Calendar wills at Proni. I would love to know about Caledon Hill, which I think could possibly be Caledon Hall. William Lyall is mentioned as being a coachman on his will and William Naye Hotel-keeper, farmer and auctioneer! Thanks.

Very interesting site.
My grandfather Frank Sherry worked in the woollen mill until 1892, when John Charles Smith sent him to Foxford in Co Mayo to help the Sisters of Charity set up a woollen mill there. He stayed in Foxford as mill manager until his death in 1949.
He was joined in Foxford by his brother James Sherry and sister Kathleen Sherry, both of whom had lived in the Caledon area.
I would be interested to know if there are still Sherrys in Caledon or the surrounding area who may be connected to the family.
