That could definitely be a possibility. I will search for a marriage between a James Cranston and a Bridget in Armagh and see if anything like that pops up.

Thank you. I thought it looked like a Mc but unsure.

Yes that's another child. I didn't even think to check IGI. I have two children for them, David and Martha.
