William Stevenson
« on: Sunday 24 June 07 14:36 BST (UK) »
Can anyone help with William Stevenson, farmer? His son, Robert John Stevenson, married Sarah Helen Patterson in Derrykeighan in 1878. There's also a connection with Robert James Stevenson, born 1864, who married and lived in England.

Thanks
Heather

Thanks Mossy. I have that info, though I have the second William married to Margaret rather than Bridget. Where did you get the info from? I can't make the connection with my Stevensons.

You're right - and I found their marriage: William Stevenson and Bridget Murdoch Jan 1851. I can't find any children for them though.
