Antrim / Beckett, Aghadavy, Ballinderry 1800-1855
« on: Wednesday 02 May 12 19:27 BST (UK)  »
Thomas Beckett born about 1805 possibly in Aghadavy but certainly Antrim.  Married Matilda Whyte 28 December 1828, probably Aghadavy.  There are several Becketts in the 1851 census for this townland of Aghadavy.  Thomas & Matilda left for America about 1850 with 6 or 7 of their children.  Some came in 1851.  There is rumor that they left in a hurry because of a disagreement with a British soldier.  They moved to Troy, New York which is near Albany.
I am looking for connections with Becketts who stayed behind.  There was Mathew (1800-), James (1804-), William (1806-).  these are all close in age to Thomas and may have been brothers.  I would also like to know which church Thomas & Matilda were married in.
Many thanks,
Tia

« on: Sunday 23 May 10 17:36 BST (UK)  »
Looking for a bible pertaining to the Huber family who lived in Philadelphia.
Jacob Huber born about 1797, possibly in Bucks County
Mary Ann Caldwell, his wife, born about 1905 in PA
Kids - Elizabeth, Charlotta Philabina, Sarah, Morgiana Ruffell, Jacob G, John Y, Margaretta Y, Maria Louisa & Henry.
Have done a lot of research on this family but am still in search of the Holy Grail, their bible.
