James Murray Ballynainch Co Down
« on: Wednesday 27 September 23 19:48 BST (UK) »
We are looking for his parents and have no names.  James was born abt 1804 and immigrated to Balfron, Scotland and married Margaret Fairlie or Fairley 1799-1850 in 1828.  He was a handloom weaver in Scotland. It is the only information that I have at this point  Thank you

There is no townland or civil parish called Ballynainch in Co Down.

Do you mean the town of Ballynahinch?
