Title: James McBride
Post by: Moatville on Saturday 04 December 10 20:09 GMT (UK)

can anyone help provide information on my great grandfather James McBride - he married Jeannie McClelland in 1898 at Fortwilliam Presbyterian Church but these church record dont seem to be held by PRONI. Does anyone have have access to the marriage cert? I can see them on 1901 and 1911 census but am struggling to find his parents

Hi,
   Sorry, no addresses. Can you find them in the 1901 census? www.census.nationalarchives.ie

thanks, but still struggling - if James was 26 in 1901 I guestimate that his father would be about 50-55 by 1901. I know James was born in Co Down, I also think from an American relative that he was buried in Drumbo, but nothing more definite than that.
