Sorry if this post is long.

Based on a review of Seagoe records beginning in 1747 there are no Pentland/Pentleton/Pendleton families in Drumgor until 1807, when there is the first mention of a Pentland family in Drumgor.
    Elizabeth Pentleton, bap 7 sep 1801, d/o Alexr & Elizth Pentleton, Drumgor
   John Pentleton, bap 22 jan 1804, s/o Alexr & his wife
   John Pentland, bap 14 jun 1807, s/o Alexr & Elizth Pentland, Drumgor
   

Alexr Pentland, died 11 nov 1841, age 78, Drumgor
Elizabeth Pentland, died 5 aug 1848, Derrykeevan, age 80 (had lived with son George in Tartaraghan)

It seems clear that Alexander and Elizabeth Pentland are the oldest couple in Drumgor and the other Pentlands from there would be their children.  (It is possible that this couple (Alexander & Elizabeth) were married elsewhere, because there is no record of their marriage in Seagoe).

Based on the Seagoe Records that I've seen, there are at least four of their children who also had children baptized in Seagoe.

George and Jane Pentland, Drumgor,
    daughter Lucy Pendleton, bap 15 jun 1823, Drumgor
    daughter Eliza Pendleton, bap 3 dec 1826, Drumgor
    son George Pentland, b. 1842, died 13 nov 1860, Tartaraghan

Alexander Pentland and Mart (prolly Margaret) Pentland, Drumgor
     Thomas Pentland, bap 3 may.1829, Drumgor, married Jane Lyness on 26 oct 1850, also from             Drumgor
       Alexander Pentland, bap 22 apr 1832, Drumgor
       Mary Jane Pentland, bap 11 aug 1834, Drumgor
      John Pentland, bap 1 feb 1838, Drumgor
     

John Pentland married Elizabeth
    Mary Pentland, bap 29 jun 1845, Drumgor

Samuel Pentland, of Seagoe Parish, married Eliza Webb of Seagoe Parish on 26 mar 1842. 
    Alexander Pentland, bap 1 feb 1844, Drumgor

The Seagoe Yeomanry Corps record have a note that Samuel Pentland, Drumgor, emig 1846.

I have found Samuel and Eliza Webb Pentland living in Canada with five children, including Alexander, b. in Ireland.
In the 1851 Canada Census, Peel County, Ontario, Samuel Pentland is living with his wife and kids
In 1861, Samuel Penelton and famliy is living in Mono, Simcoe, Ontario
In 1871, his widow, Elizabeth Pendelton is living with their kids in Mono, Cardwell, Ontario

This is my question - There are Ancestry Trees that have Samuel's parents as Daniel Penelton married to Elizabeth Flavell/Flevil.  They don't offer any evidence of how they settled on those parents for Samuel, because evidence indicates otherwise.

Is anyone familiar with any Flavells in either County Down or County Armagh? 

Is the Flavelle/Farrel name common in either Armagh or Down?

If this Pentland line came from outside Seagoe Parish, what would be the likely origin?  County Down?

If I'm going to try and find Alexander and Elizabeth's marriage, or George and Jane's marriage, what would be likely churches or Parishes?

Thanks for any suggestions.
Best,
Roxanna
