Title: Ellen Halliday/Holliday - Birth 1842
Post by: ravenhair on Wednesday 26 July 06 14:12 BST (UK)

Ellen Halliday (or Holliday) was my great great grandmother, born in Co. Antrim 6.12.1842. I believe her parents were JohnHalliday and Mary Fletcher, but would be very grateful if anyone could confirm this for me, and if at all possible, find any marriage details for John and Mary, probably in the 1830s. I realise that is a bit vague datewise, but any help or advice would be most welcome.

Ellen married John Bogue on 2.4.1871 at St Annes Belfast.

Heres hoping!!

Hello Ravenhair,

If you use the IGI on the familysearch.org site and include a region as well as the names of the parents you'll find the names of their children. 

The IGI shows that Mary and John had four other children as well as Ellen.
