Greg,
        Irish records are poor before 1845 for Protestant marriages and 1864 for other marriages and all births and deaths. It is necessary to rely on church records where they exist. I have looked at the Griffith Valuation records, c1860, ( a major survey of all property in Ireland) for Drumgurland and there are no Moore or Girvin families. Moore is a very common name and there are many in Co Antrim but Girvin is less so and there are a handful of families living just to the north of Belfast but several miles south of Island Magee.

Regards

Thanks again, since your last message, i looked at my ship records, for there arrival in Australia. Both James and Jane arrived onboard the Vessel "Maitland" with their 2 Children James 3 yrs old and Jane 8 months, must of been very common to name their siblings after themselves. Can u confirm that James Moore and Jane Girvin were married in the Parish of Islandmagee? From my ship records Jane Girvin parents were James and Sally, while James Moore's were James/Mary.

James Moore that left, his occupation was listed as Farm Labourer.

you have been a great help, thanks so much, are there any recommended websites that I should go to.

Greg
