Ireland / Re: Alexander Hattrick 1832

Thank you once again, Bally. I have documented John Hattrick (b.1799) extensively but have never found anything earlier than that information to which you have linked. In one of Corsebank's posts he mentioned a marriage date which is something I've not yet been able to track down. Currently I am working on confirming or denying that he is the JH born in Greenock, Scotland. To that end I am tracing the Hattrick/Hatrick family from their first appearance (1648) in Scottish records.
One particularly intriguing aspect of the Greenock JH is parentage. I've found two couples, Alexander Hattrick/Helen Adam & Alexander Hatrick/Helen Adam. The double 'T' are Greenock JH's parents and, despite my initial misgivings, seem to be a distinctly different pair. The single 'T' couple had an Alexander in 1799. Other births are confused by the interchanging use of TT and T.
The IED site is wonderful - thanks so very much for that link. I can't imagine why I've never heard of it before and expect to spend quite some time there. Cheers.
