James Simpson married Mary McKeown 18 Nov 1874. James father was John Ballyvelton, Mary's father Samuel, Ballylagan.
They married in Ballyrashane Church, Coleraine. I am trying to find the maiden name of both John's and Samuel's' wives.

James sister Ellen Mary shows up in the 1901 and 1911 census, James & Mary also turn up with their son Samuel.

I believe there is a book the" Families of Ballyrashane" if someone has a copy would they mind doing a look up.

Has anyone access to local cemetery records, something may turn up. I have located John's will on PRONI, his wife and daughter had already died 1889.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

I need a little help:

Samuel Greer McCullough married Elizabeth Caldwell on the 23rd June 1908 Trinity Church of Ireland Belfast

His father was listed as David McCullough Insurance. Business, Samuel's address was 23, Argyle Street, Full age, Labourer

Elizabeths father was listed as James Caldwell, Labourer. Elizabeth's address was 20, Ormeau Avenue, she was over 21 as well.

Samuel and Elizabeth had 4 boys the first one was called David after his grandfather, their last child was born January 1920 Ellen Steen McCullough. Elizabeth died within a year or two of her birth.

The problem is that I cannot find Samuel or Elizabeth's birth record, I also cannot find them in the 1911 census.

I do not know of any Scottish connection but I am sure that it is a possibility.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hello fellow researchers,

John Evans Green married in Enniskillen Northern Ireland 1911, he was a resident in the local military barracks at the time in Queen Street His father was listed as William Soldier on his marriage cert. John was listed as a Seargent in the Royal Army Medical Corps. On his daughter's birth certificate in Enniskillen 1915 he is listed as in action in France, I have found his WW1 war medal it gives the reference number 12261.

I have checked the 1911 census for the barracks, it only gives initials, some very hard to read. Most of the soldiers in the barracks were born in either England or Scotland a few from Wales.

Any ideas where to start?
