Ann Jane Moore is living with the young boy William Montgomery, presumably the son of Rebecca Moore, in the 1911 census, in the home of Thomas Moore.

For what it's worth: I cannot find a Margaret (Jane) Harbison marriage in N. Ireland to a Moore so I tried jumping the water to Scotland and found one possibility for you:
Margaret Herbison, her mother's surname was Davidson and she was married in 1856 in Dalry (Ayrshire).  You would have to pay on the SP website to obtain details on who she married. A long shot, I know.

Entirely feasible quite likely in my view. The older children probably born there. Thank you so much, I just wanted to make sure I had the right families. So many of my Presbyterian lines were over the water to and fro, seasonal work or family ties. If James Moore was born in Scotland, even if he just married in Scotland,  I may get a lead from there to my Antrim Moores as the records are so much better. Will march on!
