Dear All
thank you for the info so far. Can I be really cheeky and ask?

How can I find out the parents of Jane Rainey and Jane Mulholland?
All of their places of birth and DOB's?

Father is   James ALEXANDER and mother Jane RAINEY

Also a marriage  of James ALEXANDER  to jane MULHOLLAND  on 1 Mar 1888  at
Ballymoney Church of Ireland


I have the parents of James Alexander as John Alexander and Mary Jane Wilkinson. Would like to find out if they were born in Ireland or moved over to Co. Antrim from Scotland?

The more I dig, the more questions I come up with.

Many thanks in advance

Jane Rainey's and Jane Mulholland's marriages should list their fathers' names and occupations but Irish marriage certificates do not list the mothers' names.
Have access to many local church records but Ballymoney Church of Ireland is not one of them.
Will do a bit of checking later today and let you know if I find anything else.

An update- James Alexander, Jane Rainey and Jane Mulholland

I have located the death certificate for Jane Alexander (nee Mulholland) 1849 - 1921. Jane died in Lanarkshire, Scotland. Located on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Her parents were

William Mulholland - Farm worker and Rachel - no maiden surname noted.

It would appear that Jane Rainey died in Ireland.

Between James and his two wives they had 10 children, all born in Ireland.

The puzzle is slowly pulling together. Thanks all for your help.
