I had read somewhere that some records from the Ballymoney area had been lost in a fire.  As many of my family is from that area, I will probably not be able to find all records..  Good luck to you.

Sometimes there are gaps in church records but you just need to check and see what's available before believing in 'stories' that might have no basis in fact.

Stroan townland- https://www.townlands.ie/antrim/cary/armoy/stroan/
PRONI Guide to Church Records- LINK

For example- Roseyards Presbyterian Church- marriages 1790-1798 on microfilm in  PRONI then 1845-onwards in local custody.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hello andid
How interesting I have a Nancy McKenney birth abt 1822 married a James Dougherty,1842  there are a number of Anderson's in the cemetery at Garryduffy.  One is a Martha Anderson death 16 nov 1882.
Your Mary Jane could well be related to my Nancy. There is also a William, it is a family grave.  I was looking for a microfilm of the manuscript of Parish Registry christenings 1807 -1875.  They also have marriages.  As you can see I am looking for earlier records.

Martha Anderson who died 16 Nov 1882 was my ggg-grandmother.  Her maiden name was Martha Burns. She married John Anderson, a farmer from Garryduff
