I have William R. WATTERS of Lambeag m. Martha Jane ESPEY of the Dungannon and Cookstown ESPEY line [mine]. I'm not researching WATTERS but I'm interested in several related families, especially HAYDOCK. There is an online copy of the 1842-1843 3rd Presbyterian Church of Cookstown, if that time is relevant to your search. Cheers.

I have the same Haydock/Espey connection. My gt.grandmother was Isabella Haydock who married James Espey at Killyman.

My great great grandmother was Anne Eliza Watters, father Alexander. She married Robert Blair April 29, 1846 in Killyman. My great grandfather was Joseph Henry Blair born July 14, 1866 in Coash. I found him on the 1891 census in Motherwell with his Mother Ann a widow, brother Robert and sister Jane.
Would love to connect with anyone with information of this family, especially interested in the deaths of Robert and Anne Eliza.
