If you have any further information on the following I would appreciate it.
Raloo graveyard - Patrick Drummond in memory of his wife Rose Robinson died 1892 aged 80. Also daughter Isabella died young. Patrick Drumond died 12/10/1899 aged 80. Also daughter Sarah died 1/10/1912 aged 72, sons Thomas died 19/02/1914 aged 57, Andrew died 27/05/1927 aged 78years and Annie Jane Drummond died 14/03/1950 aged 90 years.
I also have John Snoddy married to Mary Robinson, they would have been born abt 1839, I have nothing further on Mary. John Snoddy was the son of John Snoddy and Janet Blair and this John was the son of Robert Snoddy Ballrickard Raloo b abt 1789 and Margaret Lyle b 1800 of Browndodd.

A few of them might have signed Ulster Covenant in 1912. You can check at www.proni.gov.uk- it will usually give an address of some sort and you can also view the actual signature.

Hello Helena:
Just saw your message re the surname Snoddy. My husband's grgrgrandfather is Matthew Snoddy, who came fomr Larne in Antrim. Not many Snoddy's in Canada. I have not done any research in Ireland yet, can't give you more information on Matthew right now as I have just moved houses and all my family research information is still back in boxes.. Any idea if any of your Snoddy's came to Canada?
Cheers
Anne

Hi Anne
My 4th ggrandparents were Matthew Lyle and Elizabeth Snoddy they were married 1797, I have information on Matthew I don't have anything further on Elizabeth.
Their daughter Elizabeth Jenny Lyle of Browndod married William Robinson of Raloo my 3rd ggrandparents, witnesses to this marriage were Margaret Snoddy and James Snoddy.
William and Elizabeth had a daughter Rose Mary b 1832, their other daughter Betty married a Moore his middle name was Drummond. I am trying to find out who Rose Robinson b 1812 married to Patrick Drummond in Raloo graveyard is. I think there is a connection and I have not been able to find any further info on Patrick and Rose that might provide a link.
John Snoddy and Mary Robinson according to the information I have would have been born abt 1839 this was in a submission on the CLDS, these dates could be wrong. This submission on the CLDS included other people in my family.
Since my last post I have found another record for a John Snoddy and Mary Robinson this is as follows:
8 Nov 1912, Browndod, Inver
John SNODDY, son of John Snoddy & Mary Robinson - farmer
Is this the same John Snoddy and Mary Robinson on the CLDS and the dates are wrong or is this another John Snoddy and Mary Robinson which is possible.
I have other Snoddy family on record, if you give me more info on your Matthew I will check against what I have.

Hello Helena,
This is my first post to the Roots Chat so not certain if my information will be helpful or not as I am looking for information as well. With regard to the Snoddy family, I have a James Snoddy born circa 1800. He married Eliza Curley and had a son Matthew Snoddy born circa 1845. Matthew was born in Carnduff, Inver and his father James Snoddy we believe died in Carnduff.
Does any of your information relate to mine.
Thanks Helena,

This is what I have in my notes July 16 1830 James Snoddy was born to
James Snoddy and Jane Curley Cairnduff. I wonder if he is a cousin of your James Snoddy
This was from Baptism's Raloo area
I will also PM you as I have some other records for Cairnduff

Can you give me some dates for you Matthew and I will check for you. It is possible that the Snoddy line did go to Canada as other families from Raloo and Larne went to Canada and I do have the name Matthew on record.

Hi MWylie
My Snoddy family are earlier than this
My family is James Lyle of Browndod b abt 1681 married Margaret Snoddy b Abt 1685 of Ballyrickard Raloo her parents are said to be William Snoddy and Jane Adams
James Lyle and Margaret Snoddy had grandson Matthew Lyle who married Elizabeth b. abt 1760 Snoddy of Carnduff d. 1830 Raloo. She was said to have a brother John Snoddy who was living in Ballyrickard Raloo
This is all I have on my Snoddy line I have been trying to find more information.
I did have a look at Andrew Snoddy who is buried in Larne and I think he was married 3 times this needs checking, on his will he mentions his wife and his daughter not our daughter this is the info I have and so far I cannot connect him.
Descendants of Andrew Snoddy
Generation No. 1
1. ANDREW1 SNODDY was born Abt. 1716, and died 25 Dec 1783 in St Cedma's Larne. He married MARTHA MCCOLOUGH. She was born Abt. 1725, and died 07 Jun 1780 in St Cedma's Larne.
Notes for MARTHA MCCOLOUGH:
Name is probably McCullough
Marriage Notes for ANDREW SNODDY and MARTHA MCCOLOUGH:
Did Andrew Snoddy and Martha McColough (McCullough) have son Patrick Snoddy b April 24 1753.
Child of ANDREW SNODDY and MARTHA MCCOLOUGH is:
2. i. ANDREW2 SNODDY, b. Abt. 1771; d. 31 Jan 1843, On Moore gravestone, St Cedma's Larne.
Generation No. 2
2. ANDREW2 SNODDY (ANDREW1) was born Abt. 1771, and died 31 Jan 1843 in On Moore gravestone, St Cedma's Larne. He married (1) SARAH BEGGS. She was born 1780, and died 06 Mar 1833 in St Cedma's Larne. He married (2) SARAH. She was born 1780, and died 07 Mar 1833 in Larne, Antrim, Ireland. He married (3) SARAH MOORE 1835 in Based on 1851 census, daughter of WILLIAM MOORE and JANE. She was born Abt. 1796, and died 19 Apr 1857 in St Cedma's Larne.
Notes for ANDREW SNODDY:
There is also a Matthew Snoddy on the gravestone in St Cedma's d. July 11 1918 aged 75 years born 1843 or 1842 is he a son of Sarah Moore and he was born after Andrew died. Or is he a grandson of Andrew Snoddy and Sarah Beggs or a grandson of Andrew Snoddy and another potential first wife and did Andrew and Sarah marry March 10 1829
Andrew would have been married before Sarah Beggs and therefore who is the mother of Margaret White and Martha Houston mentioned on his will.
Note from Andrew's will
I leave my house, which I purchased from Robert Mewha, to my wife Sarah upon condition that she is to pay the sum of 15 to my daughter, Martha Houston, or if she declines to do so, I desire that said house be left to my daughter Martha and she pay my said wife the sum of L15...
This note states my daughter not our daughter and Sarah is his said wife not her mother
It looks like Andrew was married 3 times
Marriage Notes for ANDREW SNODDY and SARAH BEGGS:
March 10th 1829 marriage between Andrew Snoddy Larne and Sarah (Beggs) Smyth
Is this the marriage of Andrew and Sarah and she was married previously if so Andrew would have been married previously as daughter Margaret named on his will was born 1796
Notes for SARAH:
Could be Sarah who died 7th March 1833 aged 53 from Belfast News letter
Child of ANDREW SNODDY and SARAH BEGGS is:
i. MARGARET3 SNODDY, b. Abt. 1796; d. 17 Nov 1840, St Cedma's Larne; m. NATHANIE
This does need to be checked

Hi CJToby
Are you still on line, my Drummond line is very early before 1700 in Raloo but I am trying to connect the moore line from Raloo which includes the name Drummond as a middle name.
Not sure if you can PM me as you need to make a few posts to have this feature not sure how many

Helenar,

Helena,
I am interested in Andrew A. Ross and wife Jane Snoddy who had son Thomas 1831 in Ballynure. Their relations turned up in Upstate NY around 1800. I have relations in the Ballynure area and would like to hear from you.
