Gordons from Glyn Co Antrim.
« on: Monday 17 December 18 17:07 GMT (UK) »
I'm trying to locate a record Alexander Gordon (Tinsmith) father of James Gordon born before 1864. My cousin is adamant that our Gordons came from Glyn Co Antrim but I can't find any evidence on Griffith valuation or Irish genealogy. The one I think he is is located in Doagh Grange. Is there anywhere else I could look for Gordons living in Glyn please?
