Robert Craighton
Downpatrick
Seeking the correct spelling for the surname of Robert who came to Australia, aboard the Jessie in 1839, with his wife and four children. Also the spelling of Elizabeth in the records, z or s. What was the name of Robert's father and grandfather. I have found some contradictory information on these points which I raise?

Creighton
Downpatrick
Seeking descendants of James Creighton and Margaret Conn. James was born in 1770 in Down.
I want to know the names of his children and grandchildren. Also, if possible, names of James and Margarets parents |
McAuley/Simpson
County Down, An Dun, DOW, (Province of Ulster, Ulaidh)
I am looking for the village/town that my great grandparents lived in, married in and had four children. I believe MARY JANE MC AULEY (father James McAuley/mother Jean Ferguson) married JAMES SIMPSON (father Thomas Simpson/mother Mary Johnston) possibly in 1846. They emigrated to Lanarkshire Scotland between 1855-1858. Their children were Elizabeth 1849, Jane 1852, James 1853 and Mary 1855 born in Ireland. Any hints or suggestions would be so very much appreciated. Thank you! |
Patrick Shanahan (1837) and Mary Shanahan (1838 Dowley)
Killough
I have made connections to the Dowley side - Mary's parents were Matthew and Catherine (Drohan). However no trace of Shanahans - they were boat people and lived in Carrick-on-suir. They had 9 children... Mary (1867), my grandmother came to Australia with her cousin Kate Dowley in the mid 1890's. Second sister of Mary was Catherine (1869). Love to hear from anyone... |
Houston family Kilkeel, County Down
County Down, An Dun, DOW, (Province of Ulster, Ulaidh)
Looking for information on the HOUSTON family of Kilkeen, County Down. My information shows that Richard HOUSTON, born circa 1750 married Jane PATTERSON, no birthdate of marriage information.
Their son was William HOUSTON, born 1782 who married Mary Ann NEWELL, born 1782. They had eight children, all born in County Down. Isaac, Ross, William, Robert, Richard, James, Jane and Thomas. Jane and Thomas were twins. William and his family emigrated to Canada in 1831, settling in Chatham Townshihp, Ontario, Canada.
If anyone knows any more information about this family in Ireland, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you. |
