My grandmother's aunt was named Ann McNiff, married to James McNiff, and she lived in Glackaunadarragh. I suspect that James was a younger brother to your grandfather Michael. James had a son James (Jimmy) who emigrated to the USA and who continued for many years to send a Xmas card to my grandmother in England.Visit the following link for further information.
