Hi Steve. Both Stephenson families in Maxwell Walls are related. I'm a descendent of Edmund Stephenson's branch and have some information going back before that, which I am happy to share. Other names from the area that I am searching include Wilson, Whan, and Owens. What's your link/interest? Dermot

Hi Steve.

Carnmoney / Ballyduff is some way from Maxwell walls and close to Belfast. My understanding is the Maxwell Walls Stephenson had relatives from near Antrim (Craigy?) but I am not aware of the specific link.
