John Neeson of 4 Ballybollen Road
« on: Friday 02 April 04 15:18 BST (UK) »
Hello to all out there.  

Am at my wits end trying to find info on my Neeson family in Ballybollen.  I paid for two reports to be done by Ulster Ancesty and the questions I wanted answered were not!  

This is what I have maybe any of you can help.  John Neeson born 1864/1865 I have his marriage certificate which states his father was also a John Neeson mother Catherine??.  This father John was a labourer and lived at 4 Ballybollen Road with supposedly his father a James Neeson.  Son John a weaver,married a Jane Mulholland on 1 Oct 1887 in Ahoghill RC Church and in April of 1888 they had a daughter born named Rose.  When Rose was born John her father was in Port of Glasgow working and Rose was born at her grandparents that of Charles & Rose Mulholland of Aughterclooney.  

Am trying to find John's birth info from 1864/1865 also what his mother Catherine's maiden name was????  I have been working for years and years on this family and still these questions above are not answered.  

There seems to be no info anyplace on Johns birth 1864/1865 and for his mother Catherine she is very elusive.  Any help will be most appreciated.  

I have written to the parish church in Ahoghill have all the birth, death certificate pertaining to this John and Jane once they emigrated to the states as well as all info on the family from that point.  Its the Ireland side in Ahoghill that is totally elusive.  

Thank you kindly I hope to hear from some of you on where to go from here on this research.  This John & Jane were my Great Grandparents.  

Thank you, Margie

Margie,

I hadn't a clue where "Ballybollen Road" was, so my search on Google found it possibly to be:

Ballybollen Road,
Ahoghill,
Ballymena,
Co Antrim

Is that the same Ballybollen Road as you are asking about?

Hi Margie,
I too have been trying off & on over the years to trace my Neesons, I have noticed a couple of your posts on different websites. My Gt. Grandfather was Charles Neeson from somewhere in Ireland? His death cert. states his father was Francis & his mother was Alice Kane.
Charles moved to Scotland where he married Eliza. McReynolds in 1860 in a place called Milngavie(near Glasgow). I was wondering if you had come across any of these names in your search, by the way, my grandfather William was born in the same year as your John 1864. Any info. would be apprec. From one Neeson to another & thanks. Bill Neeson

The address "4 Ballybollan Road" is only relevant in recent years since roads were given names. Having lived on Ballybollan Road until I was married I know the area. I would suggest there is no such address as No. 4, the first dwelling on the road in the dates mentioned would have been the first laneway on the left coming from Glebe Road.
I believe that townland would be Ballymacilroy.
Margie mentioned having contacted the parish Church, is that the Church of Ireland or the Roman Catholic Church.

Margie  :)

I have a GGG Grandfather John Neeson married Catherine 'Lafferty' in 1856 in Bellaghy Roman Catholic Church, Ballyscullion, Magherafelt, Co Londonderry. John and Catherine emigrated to Australia after their marriage to live in Victoria.  Born in Antrim, Ireland in 1834, Catherine married John Neeson and had 6 children. Catherine passed away in 1887 in Tarrayanta correct spelling is "Tarrayoukyan", Victoria, Australia. I have the names/details of all Neeson's buried in this cemetery. Catherine is registered in emigration documents as Laverty. If anyone has more information on the Neeson's from Aughterclooney or Derry or Rose Scullen whom I believe to be Catherine's mother/sister ? or Titus Neeson whom I believe to be Johns father/brother ? I have come to a stand still.
