Joe, i really cannot thank you enough!!!  I hope my family hasnt stressed you out.  They're a nightmare and my grandmother's side is just as bad!!   :o

The marriage cert you found would be them, thank you!!  David and Annie were my grandfather's parents and him and his siblings were raised presbyterian.  Why presbyterian i have no idea.  As for the annie, im thinking that her mother margaret must have had her illegitimately, as well as the other two and therefore was her "sister" in 1901 but "mother" in 1911.  Plus im thinking her age changed dramatically due to the pension claim forms in 1908.  I never knew it was traditional to marry in the brides church, that is a big help for other areas, thank you.

Please run as far away from any other posts i put up as you have been stressed out by my elusive family enough hehe ;D  I think i am going to just have to give my mother a list when she heads over to ireland next month, to make an appointment with PRONI and to do a tour of parishes  :)

You have been such a help, thank you!!!!

Glad the marriage record made some sense to you, it made none to me!

At least it looks to be the correct record, I was worried I was sending you up a blind alley!

I believe that John and Ellen Brown had a son called Joseph who, sadly, at the age of 24 was killed in the First World War. He enlisted in the army at Londonderry and he became a Private in the 1st Battalion of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers. Joseph was killed on the Western Front on 28th September 1916 and is interred at the Vlamertinghe Military Cemetery, Belgium. He is commemorated on the war memorial at Dunree Fort near Buncrana, County Donegal.
