Spalling / Morrison

Hi,
   I don't know if this is yours but a James Spalling married Jeanie Burns Walch in Dunboe Church of Ireland, Coleraine District in 1917.

Regards

Yes thank you that is the same James (my grandad's brother)

Cullycapple School closed in June 2013 and the registers are in PRONI. However, when I get the kitchen table cleared later tonight I will start looking through the roll books (Sandy Spallin's family certainly attended the school). More on that family shortly.

Have gone back through online records and think I've found all your Spalling family- there are a few differences from the dates you posted earlier.

I think the 'other' Spallin family in Aghadowey is connected (Bovagh and Mullaghinch are adjoining townlands). So, here's a family tree for them-

Alexander Spallin (c1861-Oct.1954) m.(1892) Sarah Wilson (c1866-cJan.1957).

[margaretspalling]

Thanks ever so much for all that info.  Some of those I didn't know about so I reckon its down the road of applying for all the certificates and it's more info than I could ever get on my own 

So Can I ask you a silly question and  there is no panic on the answer but who is Sandy Spallin??? I am so full of questions now I don't know where to start LOL

[aghadowey]

Sorry, forgot to explain that 'Sandy' is a nickname for Alexander.

Earliest Cullycapple roll book I have here at the moment is 1917- will have to look for earlier ones.
See reply #12 for 4 Spallin sisters I found there so far.
Also found an Annie Spallin (Presbyterian, age 4 in JUly 1917) but not sure where she fits in yet. The roll books list # on register, name, religion and attendance but not townland, dates of starting & leaving and father's occupation that will be in the registers.

Will also check some early school photos to see if any of either family are in them.

[margaretspalling]

Again thanks ever so much for everything and much as I want to know all I can, please don't give yourself any trouble.  Though photos would be good as I don't have any unless one of my grandad as he died before I was born.     

Can I ask also (yep here I go again) is Aghadowey Parish and St. Guires one and the same or do I have to look somewhere different

[margaretspalling]

Sorry should have said good morning before I started that speel

[aghadowey]

Aghadowey is the name of both the civil parish and a townland in the centre of it. St. Guaire's is the Parish (Church of Ireland) church there.

The Presbyterian Church is just down the road-

Alexander Spallen's family were Church of Ireland and there is a family plot there. Son Alexander buried in the Presbyterian churchyard in Faulkner plot (think that was his wife's connection).
