Thank you very much, Sinann, for the marriage links. Someone told me once before not to put a lot of weight on whether someone was a farmer or a weaver, as many farmers were weavers and vice versa. Also I have found others who changed from farmer to weaver with the birth of each child.
I am fairly certain that the 1851 Thomas does not belong to Hugh Lennox and Anne Miller. I did find another Hugh, weaver, who had a son Samuel abt 1849 in Lisnamorrow. So I thought Thomas could fit there agewise even though I think he was actually born before 1851. I don't know the mother's name for either Samuel or Thomas.
Yes, whiteout7, you have found the two Thomas Lennox families in 1901. There is a 20 yr. difference in age. When Thomas married Mary Lennox, he was a widower, and there is a Thomas with father Hugh who married Jane Campbell in 1868 and she died in 1869. Could be same Thomas but there are so many Thomases. I am trying to follow up on Robert Irwin but he could be a nephew to either Thomas Lennox or Mary Lennox. There are 4 Robert Irwins born 1888 and 1889 in Scotland so costly unless I guess right the first time. I didn't notice the Scotland until you mentioned it whiteout7. I did find a Robert Irwin on the 1911 age 17, born in Lanarkshire but all 4 choices for Robert born in 1888 or 1889 are in Lanarkshire so that doesn't help. Unless if it is the same Robert in 1911, his middle name was George and that eliminates two of the births.
Will keep working on this.
Thanks for your help Sinann and whiteout7. Oh, I just noticed your latest posting Sinann and it is interesting that Mary Lennox who married in 1873 was in Drumena and that is where the aforementioned Samuel born abt 1849 and Samuel died 1873 in Drumenagh and his father was Hugh. When Thomas Lennox married Mary Lennox, daughter of George, it was also in Wood's Chapel. So Thomas, Mary and Samuel could be siblings. I will look to see the name of Mary Kirkwood's first daughter to see if that might be a clue. Or Jane Pollock's first daughter.
