Johnston & Smyth Brickwalls - Completed

[TonyR]

Hello everyone, I'm after info on my Johnston & Smyth families who appear to come from Down, but I'm stuck!

What I have is; James Johnston married Mary Smyth at the Presbyterian Church in Killinchy, 31 May 1879.  James was 21 & from Kilmood and Mary 23 from Comber.  Both fathers were William & Labourers.

First child William born 25 April 1880 at High Street, Comber.  Second Bella born 1 Feb 1883 at Ballymonan, Killyleagh.  Third James born around 1885, no details.  Fourth Samuel John born 31 May 1889 at Ballygeigan, Killyleagh, baptised at Killyleagh 2nd Presbyterian Church 4 August 1889.  Family then moved to Barrow-in-Furnace, Lancs, England sometime before 1891 census.

So if anyone can help with missing info or point me in the right direction to get the details on James senior & Mary's births, parents, etc and James junior's birth, I would be extremely grateful.

Any help, tips or advice gratefully received.  Regards, TonyR.

Hi Christopher, thanks very much for that info.  Where did you find it - was it from a land owners list or something along those lines?  Regards, TonyR.
