Scott and sugarbakers, just in summary of some of the info from the last couple of pages, re the children of William Porter and Bridget Brogan:
Elizabeth Porter Date of Birth: 16-Mar-1836 Date of Baptism: 27-Mar-1836
- to confirm, but likely she married John Curran in 1852 in Ireland from what you both have found. Her death cert in Greenock 1872 will help finalise her details.
Mary Porter Date of Birth: -- Date of Baptism: 06-Jan-1839
- Mary's info is clear and you are in contact with a descendant and have details. She married a Charles Boyle.
Sarah Porter Date of Birth: 30-Jun-1847 Date of Baptism: 15-Aug-1847
- we don't have anything further for Sarah.
John Porter Date of Birth: 14-Oct-1848 Date of Baptism: 03-Nov-1848
- potentially up to four wives from what you have now: Martha Galbraith (or Lawrie), Margaret Hislop, Mary Bain and Agnes Munro. All confirmed with certs expect for Martha (your direct line's mother).
Susan Porter Date of Birth: 14-Jun-1851 Date of Baptism: 20-Jul-1851
- confirmed as having married Michael McCrossin in 1872.
Eleanor Porter Date of Birth: 30-Jun-1854 Date of Baptism: 30-Aug-1854
- confirmed as having died in Greenock in 1855.
Apart from Sarah who may have died in Ireland (?) and we have no further details on, we are pretty good now on events for the Porters in the mid to late 1800s now.
