Thanks for the details. I found the 1849 shipping record you referred to. Interestingly William is recorded as a miner from England which does put a question mark over whether it is the right family. But if the names and ages of the children all line up with the records you’ve found in the US then maybe that is them.
I also came across the shipping record for the son Andrew Dickey (20yo schoolmaster from Ireland) when he travelled in 1852. The next passenger on the list was James Todd (also 20yo, shoemaker) who might have been from Ballyclare too.
