Hi Cherilyn
This is the only birth record for a Hugh and Agnes (don't think it could be transcribed-but you never know)

Record Type Civil Birth
Date of Birth 24 May 1865
Gender F
Fathers Name Hugh HUNTER
Mothers Forenames Agnes
Mothers Maiden Name OKANE
Civil District Antrim
Sub District Doagh
County Antrim

Nothing for David Henry.
Nothing at all for your Lindsays or Crompton - and no you didn't ask too much!
Just sorry I couldn't help.
Good luck
:)

Andrea

Thank you so much for your help. I was hoping that Isabella would be a McGranahan and her father was Joseph. At least I now know I'm following the right line and perhaps I'll be able to find more information.

Many thanks once again for your time.

Hi Andrea , Thanks for your kind offer of help . Could you find info for me on Leslie Caskie , born 20 may 1876 in Londonderry ? He had a daughter , Catherine Caskie on 12 aug 1896 , possibly in Limavady . Was her mother Elizabeth Tracey ? As they didn`t marry until 3 jan 1903 in Glasgow , Scotland . Or did he have a previous wife ? Any info such as his parents names etc would be most welcome . Cheers Graham .

Hi Andrea

Thanks for your kind offer.

I am looking for the following please:

Marriage of Hugh HUNTER & Annie UNKNOWN c1840; Annie born c1815 NI and Hugh c1810 NI. Also any children to this couple, esp David Henry HUNTER c1852 in Belfast, Northern Ireland (my gg grandfather).

Also if possible:

Birth Andrew LINDSAY c1887 in Ardstraw, Co Tyrone, father John
Birth Eliza Jane CROMPTON c1884 in Castlederg, Co Tyrone, father James

I have Andrew & Eliza Jane's marriage (1909 in Strabane). But if you can confirm births of their chn it would be brilliant (Wm Jas 1909; May 1911; Sadie c1912; Bessie c1914; Andrew French c1915.)

I hope I am not asking too much!

Thank you again

Thank in anticipation :-) Anne
PS. They may have been from farming folk.

Hi Andrea, thanks so much for the offer. I am after both a marriage and a birth if possible. Mary Shea was born in Co Tipperary to Edward Shea and Ann Davis. Now, mary was married at some point to a Mr Gallagher, as when she remarries in 1877, that is her other name. Unfortunately all the marriage cert gives is her name and place of birth, no ages for her or the groom. I'm assuming that as she is a widow, she has to have been born around 1830-1840, which would also give her parents marriage around that time. Thanks for anything you can find, regards Linda :)

Hi Andrea, thanks for the offer.

Do you have any census' for Portaferry. I'm looking for the surname Torney please.

Thanks
Dee

PS any births/marriages/buriels for Torney Portaferry would be useful. Its only a small town so I wouldn't think there would be many.

Hi Andrea

Thank you for the kind offer. I'm looking for a marriage for Hugh Kernaghan and Isabelle/Isabella. I believe they came from Belfast and they had a son also called Hugh that my aunt remembers from about 1940 but not sure when he might have been born. Any help appreciated.

Many thanks
Maisy
