Looking info on a Joseph Spence born 1847 Taylorstown Balkyscullion County Antrim Weaver by trade
Marrird  Margaret McDowell Oct 9 1868 in Ballyscullion Joseph died in 1903
Thankyou

Does his marriage cert give any fathers name?

Where did you get his full birthplace details - 1901 just says Antrim & occ is cloth inspector - not weaver

Is this Joseph in the 1901 census:

William was evidently living in Glasgow at that time. William & family in 1901:

As Heywood says, it would be helpful to know what you already know and what it is you are looking for.

Marrage cert gives Josephs father as William Spence Weaver and Margarets Father as Robert McDowell also a Weaver looking for anything about his family for my records
Thankyou

[heywood]

I posted a link to the marriage and census and son’s marriage has also been posted.
What other information have you found?
Do you have any other children besides William?

You should be able to find births etc at this site to 1921 or thereabouts.

Are you trying to go back, though, rather than forward?
Where did you find Joseph’s birth details?

Your family perhaps?

Do you have William Spence’s marriage? I wondered if this is him - spouse Nancy Moffatt

Looks good, heywood 
Married in the same church as Joseph 23 years later - Grange (of Ballyscullion) Presbyterian Church.
As were Elizabeth (1873) and James (1872).
