Hello Sunflower,regretfully I can only speculate on where and whenhe was born,I suggest he was born around 1805 to 1814 probably in the general area of St Andrews,his Mother was buried @ ?Collinsburg? as was he.I guess he was probably in his 70's when he died intestate @ Kenly Green.The 2 sons were born in St Andrews parish,Thomas in 1832 and John in 1836, as I expect as were any other siblings.Regards Ian
