Can anyone supply any details please.

Robert Kennedy married Agnes McPalle? (per her daughters death record).  I notice a Robert Kennedy married an Agnes ? in Colraine in 1811, since they had a daughter Elizabeth Kennedy in 1816 it would be interesting to know who this Agnes was and any details.

Elizabeth Kennedy married James Gastion and had a daughter Agnes Gastion born Tullygrally about 1835.

Would be extremely interested in finding any siblings of Agnes and any marriage details etc.

Agnes Gastion married John Morrison on 28 Apr 1854 when she was 19 in Rasharkin parish.  Gastion spelt Gaston after this.

Agnes Morrison later moved to Scotland with her family and is joined by her mother Elizabeth Gastion presumably after the death of her husband James Gastion.  She first apears in the Scottish census in 1881 as a widow.

Elizabeth Gaston, nee Kennedy died 1888 in Paisley.  Record shows Father, Robert Kennedy and Mother Agnes Kennedy nee McPalle.  Can find no record of this name, thought it might be McFall.

Agnes emegrates to America with her own married daughter where she dies in 1914.  On her migration form she states her birthplace as Tilligrally which we presume is a misspelling of Tullaghgarley, today's Tullygrally.

Would appreciate any help or insight.

Regards, Gerry.

Gerry,
        Cannot find your marriage but the 1811 Coleraine marriage was to Agnes THOMPSON.

Thanks Kingskerswell, thought that might be just a bit too easy.
