Down / John Gordon 1791 - 1837 Newtownards
« on: Friday 05 January 18 17:45 GMT (UK)  »
My 3rd Great Grandfather, John Gordon, lived in Newtownards. His wife was Sarah (possibly Moore) 1787 - 1837. John was a tailor in Newtownards and was buried at Molvilla cemetery, Newtownards.
I cannot find a birth for John Gordon and I have no marriage information.
If anyone can assist me to trace more information on John Gordon and/or his wife Sarah and their ancestors I would be most appreciative.
