John,
I was able to find this: 
John Stewart from Larne
arrived in U.S., 1900, aged 22, single;
sailed on the ship Campania from Liverpool.

Helena and John,
Many thanks.  It seems that I missed quite a few of James Robinson's children.  It is also interesting how the name Letitia keeps poping up.  Was that a common name back then?

For example, from Ellis Island records:
1904--Robert Robinson from Ballyclare, aged 36
Letitia, wife, aged 30
Mary Ellen, aged 3
Letitia, aged 1
Friend listed as being William Beckett of Philadelphia

Others from that area:
Margaret Beatrice Gardner, b. 1886; dau of Andrew Gardner of Ballyalbana; dressmaker; aged 20 in 1906; living in Minnesota.

My grandfather:
George M. Robinson, from Ardymaugh; arrived in U.S. 16 Mar. 1899 on board the Teutonic from Liverpool; occupation, farmer; passage paid by William Dodds; destination Mount Morris, New York.

Other immigrants:

Joseph Queery McCauley; from Glenwhirry; arrived U.S. 1909, aged 34; Mt Morris ?, New York.

Alexander Gillespie and Thomas McCauley, aged 21, farmer Ballyalbana; they join friend James Thompson in U.S.  Alexander had previously worked at Ballyclare paper mill.

I am not sure if I can help, but I have done research on John Macaulay, the Town Clerk of Levengrove who was related to the Dixon family.  The Macaulays seems to be equally as mysterious...Paul

So far, in my immediate family I have the Robinsons marrying into the McCauley and Topping families.  However, I understand that one member related to this branch of the family had as his middle name McGladdery.  This Robinson was better known as the Bard of Ballyalbanagh.

Rough pedigree that is not proven as yet:

Both the Robinson family and the McCauley family were Presbyterian.  Looking for both ancestors and current family members who may be related to these two families.
