Hi Elwyn:)
Thanks for your reply There are several Articles ive Found re my ggggrandfather John C Clendinnen On line Thru Googling etc
Here is One of them
Clendinnen, John C
Clendinnen, John C., an Irish Wesleyan minister, Was born in County Down in 1770 of Presbyterian parents. He entered the work in 1796 endured hardship during the rebellion of 1798 labored long and faithfully; became a supernumerary in 1831, residing first at Newtownbarry and then (1841) at Bideford, where he died, Feb. 6,1855. He was humble, long-suffering, gentle, and meek. See Minutes of the British Conference, 1855; Wesl. Meth. Magazine, 1855, p. 854; Stevenson, The Methodist Hymn-book and its Associations (Lond. 1870, 12mo), p. 268.
Im wondering where to go next with this lineage As there is also a Book Written on the family Called *House of Glendonwyn* According to that his Great Grandfather was a William Glendinning of QuarterLand in Co Down Have access to Irish Newspaper Archives But have Yet to Find much on this William Glendinning Either...He and his Wife had several Children ..Wife was a Rose Nee Fisher And there are People researching this line But theres Also a Fair bit of Contraversy re this lineage too
