I'm researching my McClure ancestors.Family legend says three  brothers McClure and one cousin called Wallace came from Scotland in the 17th century to avoid religious persecution -they were covenanters.  The name of Wallace has been used as a McClure christian name since then.

I have got back to my great grandfather Robert McClure born 1821/22 and died at Lisnisk-Ballymoney in 1897. He was the son of William McClure and at the time of his 2nd Marriage to my Great Grandmother Marry Jane Hart daughter of Samuel Hart of Culduff and Mary Jane Dickey in 1877 his place of residence was given as Lisboy.


Any help with MCCLURE/HARTorDICKEY would be appreciated.

I also have McClures of Kilraughts. my great Grandfather born circa 1821 son of William and died 1897 at Lisnisk. His second marriage was to My great grandmother Mary Jane Hart in 1877 at Ballymoney Reformed Presbyterian church -  his residence at this time was Lisboy.  They had several children -William married Martha Chestnut-Jane Married Adam Elliott and my grandmother Sarah Married David Alexander He Also had a son Robert born 1888 and living at Kilraughts in 1911 census.
I should like to find out more about the family and also to find out if the Ballymoney Reformed church records have been filmed or on Fiche
