That you so much for this I heard that Issac had changed his will in favour of someone else and that he had nothing only what my great grandmother had left him and it was to be left to my grandmother if he died after her . She never got it or the farm and don't know who got it

This is a possible marriage for James McComb to Ann Spence 1870

Have a go at searching yourself and give us a shout if you get stuck. You will probably need to move to the Northern Ireland site eventually. PRONI

I think this was Roberts parents she was Ann Jane I see he lived with his aunts in the 1901 census I think and was 18

So his parents either were dead or he moved out ???

If you get a copy of the will, it will tell you who the beneficiaries were. If you note the various dates, you'll see that Rachel died 10 days before Isaac's first probate grant was approved. That may be part of the explanation as to why she never inherited the farm.

My family McComb also comes from this area. I believe my gr gr gr grandfather was David McComb(e) and he had a son called William John McComb.

I can find parish records to show WJ attended Ballylane Reformed Presbyterian Church but cant find any information on David.

Unfortunately there is a few David Mccomb in the area and all seem to call their children William, James, Robert, Samuel!! Making it almost impossible to locate which one belongs to me.

I believe a child of WJ - called William moved to American in 1904 or 1907.
