Family History Beginners Board / Moore McCurdy
« on: Tuesday 13 December 16 23:52 GMT (UK)  »
Elizabeth McCurdy married Charles McCauley in 1853 and her residence was shown as Carrickfergus Antrim. At the time, her father was shown as Moore McCurdy and I can't find any information about him. Can anyone help please?

Family History Beginners Board / Michael May
« on: Tuesday 13 December 16 23:39 GMT (UK)  »
My grt. grt. grandfather Michael May was born in Arklaw Wicklow about 1815 according to his age when joining the British army. He and his wife Mary Brew had four children in Dublin after his service in Burma and India. They were Edward, Francis Albert, Catherine who must have died as another Catherine was born to this couple in Belfast in 1868. Francis Albert married Sarah Eliza McCurdy and they emmigrated to Australia in 1910. It is Michael's parentage I am curious about.

Antrim / McCurdy family Carrickfergus Antrim
« on: Tuesday 13 December 16 23:23 GMT (UK)  »
My grt grandmother was Sarah McCurdy and her parents were Alexander and Jane (nee Lough). In the 1862 Griffith Valuation they farmed in the West Division of Carrickfergus. This property was adjacent to the property of Mary Lough, believed to be mother of Jane. It is the family of Alexander that I seek as I have no birth or death. He died prior to Jane as she married widowed John Lewis in 1825 and her son John seems to have taken over the farm at that time. I would be grateful for any help or information.
