Ian,

Thanks again for your information, Tried to personal message that other stuff to you but can't as you have only made two posts and need three for personal messages. If you reply to this one that will give you three and I'll be able to send the PM.

Thanks

Witherow

Hello Witherow,
                        So many learning curves these days, not long ago I said I didn't want to know any more. I have the families of the Jane Witherow/Robert Ramsay marriage as well as Jane and John Ramsays, if you want them. It would be clearer than the info posted on the attachments. Look forward to recieving your information.

Hi Witherow,

Have you come across a Thomas WITHEROW who married a Mary ROSBOROUGH possibly around 1814.  Thomas also went by the name of WETHERALL. 

Thomas was from the parish of Banager.

Hi,
   According to the IGI Thomas Witherow and Mary Rosborough had a son, Thomas, christened in Drumachose on 1 Sept 1817.

Sorry my mistake:

The exact entry is as follows from the original reigister [PRONI MIC/583/35]

Thomas son of Thos Witherow & Mary Rosborough of the Irish Green NT' Limavady September 1st 1817; Thos Plunket [Rector]

Thank You.  I was aware of this entry but not the exact wording so this is appreciated.  I believe that there was a son William born about 1815.  In 1842 he was living in Belfast.

I have found a burial record for a Mary ROSEBURGH wife of Thomas WETHERALL in Glasgow in 1834 age 38 which gives her birthdate at around 1796.

I also have a Mary WETHERALL born c. 1832 in Glasgow (according to census record) married at Drumachose Presbyterian Church in 1851.

Not sure what happened to either Thomas.  Did they return to Limavady and if not who was Mary WETHERALL living with at the time of her marriage.

I would like to find ( if possible) a marriage entry for Thomas WITHEROW and Mary ROSBOROUGH and baptism for William WITHEROW born 1815.

Any info would be appreciated.

Regards, Christine

It is unlikely that you will find the marriage as it is before civil registration therefore you have to rely on the church registers if they have survived.

Most of the L'Derry church registers have been indexed by the Derry genealogy centre and this index is searchable at the following website:

I did a search for Witherow/Rosborough marriage and the return was negative

Likewise for the birth of a Thomas Witherow c.1815.

Christine,
               I could not find the detail you are looking for but the 1851 marriage of Mary Wetherall was to John Simpson and date was 28 Jan 1851. Hope this helps.
