I believe Matthew was born in 1681 probably Ardstraw, Tyrone and his brother or cousin perhaps a year or two later. They left Ireland in 1718/1720 along with wife and children and settled in Voluntown, Ct.
Any information that would help me find their parents would be appreciated.

update: What I understand is that the Children were Matthew 1702-1790, John 17 Dec 1711-1797, Thomas 1716-1808 all born in Ardstraw, Tyrone --- one researcher mentions a son Issac but that has not been supported. It is felt that they came to the States along with a group headed by a Rev. John Boyd.
