There is a Francis McCusker listed in the Tithe Applotment Records in the parish of Aghalurcher, townland of Derrycrum in 1833. Aghalurcher cemeter/Aghalurcher Parishy and chapel remains are about halfway between Maguires Bridge and Brookborough.


From Fermanagh Deeds http://www.ulsterancestry.com/ua-BrookeDeeds.html

27 July 1818 Lease from Henry Brooke, Colebrooke, Co. Fermanagh, to Francis McCusker, Derrycrumn, Co. Fermanagh, of 7a. 1r. 8p. of Derrycrum, Co. Fermanagh, for the lives of Francis McCusker and James Wright: (1) Reserves right to make a road; (2) Rent £6 6s.7d; (3) Six days of work of man and horse and six hens or fifteen pence in lieu of each day's work and sixpence in lieu of each hen; and (4) Corn, etc, to be ground at mill of Henry Brooke, payment for not doing so £5.


Other than the above possibilities, very little is known about him. His son John McCusker married in 1848 in the Cathedral of Clogher, Co. Tyrone and Francis was recorded as being a labourer.
John's eldest daughter was born in Abbey Lodge, Brookborough/ Maguires Bridge, Fermanagh in 1851.
