Tyrone / Simpson Family
« on: Monday 19 April 21 22:14 BST (UK) »
Hello there Rootschatters. New to site so please forgive me if this is the wrong place to put this enquiry 
I am looking for info on a Robert and Margaret Simpson. Their son Thomas was born 1834 in Kingsmill Tyrone and his brother Joseph in 1837. They both moved to New Zealand late 1860s and then married sisters Jemima and Mary Ann McIlroy in Australia who were from from Littlebridge just up the road from their farm back home. We know a lot of Thomas and Joseph but are stumped at what became of their parents. We know Robert was a farmer/flax worker at Kingsmill 6 kms east of Cookstown. but that is it. Thanks in advance, point me in the right direction if this needs to be somewhere else.
