Could anyone help with the birth of a Sarah McKinley born in Drumlin, Magheralin around 1854. I know she married a Robert Hanna in the 1870s and would like to know if I can get information on his birth as he might also have been from the same place. He died in the 1890s in Belfast due to an accident and I cannot get a record of his death.
Could anyone help, please?

Griffiths list Alexander McKinley as the only McKinley in Drumlin and he had a Sarah born or baptized in Sept 8, 1846. His wife is listed as Isabelle on familysearch and Isabelle Boyle if you check for son Alexander,1849, 1850, 1852. Son James McKinley was baptized at age 3 in 1852, John 1857, Isabelle 1844.
This would put Sarah as about 20 when she married which is reasonable.

UKvillages has a question about Drumlin Henry Bunting and Sarah McKinley. As Henry Bunting married Isabelle McKinley and had son Alexander in 1875 in Drumlin, I think there may be some confusion and Isabelle b. 1844 is Sarah's sister. Adding to the confusion is that Henry was born 1843 to Henry and Isabelle Bunting. You may want to respond to the address left at that site.
Isabelle is in DOnaghcloney in 1901.

Thank you all for your help. I will just get my head round this now. I now remember that I heard there was a Bunting in the family. Once again thanks.
