Down / Alexander Donning (Denning) - barony of Ards Co. Down
« on: Thursday 17 October 19 02:45 BST (UK)  »
I wondering if anyone can help  - re: Alexander Donning (born about 1764 - died 1819) who married Jane Bailie (born about 1763 died 1831) - who married about 1789.   Nothing is known about the couple, only what is written here.  They were believed to have been from Drumardin ,  Co. Down.     We are not sure if they were original from Co. Down, or born and married elsewhere in Ireland.   (they were Presbyterians)

They had two known children: Alexander (1795) and Elizabeth (1798) and possibly Samuel and Jane.

We have information on their two children  Alexander and Elizabeth   no need for information there    ( which saves a lot of  time looking, as I appreciated that time is valuable )  -  it is only their parents and possible other children the parents may have had - that I am finding hard to locate.     Maybe - no records go back that far, for Co. Down.   

Thank you.
