Abraham Holmes 1670
« on: Friday 07 June 13 22:27 BST (UK) »
   Abraham's grandfather was Ninian Holmes b. 1610 of Ballyaghran. Ninian had 2 sons that I have found, there could be more. Ninian's 1st son was John which I have no information on. Ninian's 2nd son was William b. 1640, the other son's come after William.

   William 1640 had 3 son's - 1. William a merchant in Coleraine who had a son Samuel. 2. Abraham 1670 of Ballygelagh, Ballyaghran, Parish & Ballyreagh, Ballywillin Parish. Abraham had 4 son's - 1. Abraham b. 1700 married to Janet Hopkins of Ballykelly. 2. Ninian b. 1715 of Ballywillin
Parish, Ninian's son Abraham b. 1740 immigrates to New York marries Sarah O'Neal of Albany, Albany, New York & their line - of - lineage comes to Chatham On., Canada which I am a decendant of. Abraham's 3rd son is Samuel of Coleraine who has a son Samuel born in Dublin.
Abraham's 4th son is Paul who has a son Abraham.

   Starting with Ninian 1610, his son's John & William 1640, his son William the merchant & Abraham 1670, is it at all possible to find wives for these men?

A previous topic gives Ninian Holmes (born 1715) with wife Mary Erwin, etc.
