Galway / James Winfield JORDAN
« on: Friday 12 February 10 05:18 GMT (UK)  »
Have just got my Gt Grandfathers death cert and it says that James Winfield Jordan was born Galway Ireland to John Jordan and Maria Jordan nee Kelly in c1835.

James is then recorded as marrying in Victoria Australia in 1858 and dying in New Zealand 1907, so looking for data on his birth, his parents and possible siblings, his departure to Aus , did he go alone or with family or was he deported [cant find any convict records in aus for him] only for his wifes parents.

My grandfathers father circa 1835-Ap 8 1907 Bdm records him having children with a Ellen Theresa have no maiden name for her circa 1838- may 25 1924. I am looking for data back from him and her and also from his offspring other than Walter Heathcote Jordan who is my grandfather.

 although I would like some data on one of walters sons David Milton Jordan Have his death date of sep 16 1963 born 1918? he had a relationship in which 1 child was born and then was Married and Had 1 other child both female I think 2nd one was I think Named Karen.

One of james sons I think also had the same name and married a Ellen Elizabeth Shackel circa 1874-may 11 1949 married Jan 15 1898 and from this relationship Came I think what my father said was a cousin Syd but cant find correct data on that LDS has it completely wrong And On bdm there are various names of mothers of children fatherd by James Jnr.

Antrim / McCahon/Wilson
« on: Wednesday 13 January 10 06:12 GMT (UK)  »
My Grandfather Hugh McCahon was Born in Moneyleck Aug 24 1893 and died New Zealand May 22 1975, His Father was Joseph also known as Joey born circa 1867 buried Rasharkin Balleymoney and married Hannah wilson circa 1874- 1919.

I have a fair amount of data on the Wilson Side But no other data on Joey other than his brother Archie and his family, The family at some time for some  reason changed their name from McCaughern which is the name on my Grandfathers Birth cert and his father and mother have this name also on this Birth cert as McCaughern however the 1911 census has him and his whole family  including Archie and his Family as McCahon so it was changed in this time period.

What I am Looking for is any data back and or sideways from Joey as I am hitting a brick wall with him. ::)

Thanks in anticipation, first time on here hope I am in the right area.
