Hi Annie,
As far as I can recall John and Sarah were both born in Northern Ireland. John born to Michael Mellon and Ann McCourt ( no dates for them as yet) I have John's death as occurring in Blantyre in 1900 (35 Watson's Land, Larkfield).
His wife Sarah is a total confusion due to the many spellings of her name. I found a record from Dublin, Ireland which indicates her birth under the name Sarah McLernon in 1818 to Hugh and Sarah Mclernon.
I can't guarantee the accuracy but this is the closest I have found for my 3x great grandparents.
My tree does need considerable tidying but I've just not had time recently.
Hope this is of some help,
Louise
