Thank you for the information.  I know that both Nancy married to James Green and Jane & William Adair's daughter Eliza emigrated to the USA. Not sure if Jane and William went also. In the census in USA Nancy said she had had 12 children of whom 8 were still alive.  I had managed to find 11 including the one you note in 1865!  There was one child born in US - Maud.  Still searching for the other one.
Thank you once again for your interest in the family.

My maternal grandfather Matthew Davidson came from Ballyroney and he had an Ingram family as neighbours at Shanagan. I often visited there as a small child and have a photograph which I THINK might be of myself with two of them (there is no annotation). The name Albert definitely rings a bell and he may be the elder of the men in the photo but I have absolutely no means of verifying this. I do know that one of their relatives, Evelyn, was a Staff Nurse in Banbridge Hospital in 1960s. You could try a message on Facebook "Banbridge Days Gone By"

Hi Matt
Thank you for your very informative post.  I would love to see your photograph if it is possible to post it here.  If not perhaps you could PM me with it.  I would be assuming that they would both be deceased now, but you are not.  I think a PM would be the only way, if at all.
Thank you once again

You cannot use attachments on PM and I cannot post the photo here as it shows people (apart from me and my sister) who are almost certainly still living. Suggest you PM with your e-mail and then I can attach. There are actually three similar photos. From the post which responded to my mention of Shanagan, you can see that Albert Snr died in 1954 when I would have been 1 so if there is an Albert in photo he would be Albert Jnr. I stress that It is only my hazy memory that tells me that the other persons in photos are Ingram. I have no evidence that Davidsons and Ingrams were related by marriage. I remember Evelyn very clearly but have no idea if she still lives, she would be in her late 70s at least. There are two Banbridge newspapers - Leader and Chronicle. A letter to one or both might be productive

Thank you very much for your kindness in sending me the photos.  I just have to work out who was who!
