Derry (Londonderry) / Re: William Richards b 1780 Mountervelin Derry
« on: Thursday 19 April 18 18:45 BST (UK)  »
I can't find any reference to Richard Williams and I haven't heard of Mountervelin.

There is a  record of the birth of Eliza Anne McWILLIAMS on 14/05/1813 in Ballyorr, GLENDERMOTT Derry.

She was baptised 06/06/1813 in the Church of Ireland and her parents were Richard McWilliams and Sarah Anne McKey .

There is also an Andrew McWilliams b.13/10/1818 and a William McWilliams b.13/03/1823...parents Richard and Sarah (no maiden name) in Limavady.

There is a Joseph McWilliams b.01/02/1826 in Tamlaght Finlagan...parents Richard and Sarah Kane

Possible clues:
Did you notice that Matilda and John both had an Alexander Morrow as a witness?
Matilda and Margaret Jane were married in the same place...Woods Chapel.
