Have managed so far to trace my McCulloch family tree back to Hugh and Agnes (Begg) McCulloch to their marriage date of Jan 4th, 1859 in Glenwhirry, Co Antrim. My direct ancestor was their son Samuel McCulloch who moved to Salcoats in Scotland and married Jane McMurtie.
I am struggling to find much more about Hugh's and Agnes except Hugh's father was William and Agnes father was James Begg. Is there any pointers or sites where I can search for more info like birth cerificates and a marriage certificate.

Welcome to RootChat
Sorry you haven't had a response sooner.
Looking at the marriage
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1859/09563/5467066.pdf
I see it was in the Presbyterian church, so I won't be much use to you I don't know about Presbyterian records.
There are other important points on the marriage though, Hugh's father is a farmer and Agnes' is I think a weaver, also the witness George McCullock may be a brother of Hugh, likely a close relative at least.
Registration of births and deaths only began in Ireland in 1864 and registration of non catholic marriages in 1845.
Hopefully someone with an knowledge of Presbyterian records will post soon.
Looking again I wonder if James Beggs is a mason.

Marriages usually take place in the bride's church but it may be that both the bride and groom belonged to the same one. Usually after a marriage the couple would have attended the groom's church. For example, if bride Presbyterian and groom Church of Ireland then marriage in Presbyterian Church then children baptised COI. There are, of course, exceptions to this.
The marriage record gives the surname as BEGGS not Begg, the groom's surname is McCullough and the witness is George McCullough.
Now, assuming for a moment that they were both Presbyterian and stayed in the same area they could either be buried at Glenwherry Presbyterian Church or in the local Parish (Church of Ireland) one.
I'm having trouble making out the name of the residence of bride and groom- looks something like G_galle_gh? and there's nothing beginning with G in Glenwherry Civil Parish so I'm wondering if it is Kinnegalliagh?

As Sinann says, civil registration of births started in 1864 so you'll need to search for baptismal records for any children born between 1859-1863.

Have found lots more but have to go out for awhile so have to post later.

I noticed the following marriage for a George McCullough and Mary Beaty that took place about 10 months before the McCullough-Beggs marriage, same church, same minister, same residence (Kinnegalliagh in Glenwhirry Civil Parish), and a Hugh McCullough was one of the witnesses, however the groom's father was recorded as Samuel (or Daniel?) McCullough, not William, so I don't know how he ties in:
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1858/09543/5459568.pdf
The only McCullough in Kinnegalliagh in Griffith's Valuation was a George McCullagh (print date 1862). The only McCullough in that townland in the 1901 Ireland census was James McCullagh, Kinnegalliagh was also his address when he married Ellen Jane Hamilton in 1870, however his father was recorded as Robert, so again, I don't know how he ties in, if at all, to Hugh (son of William) or George (son of Samuel/Daniel):

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1870/11397/8185154.pdf
On the Beggs side, while there are a couple of them in Kinnegalliagh in Griffith's Valuation, I couldn't readily make a connection to James Beggs the mason. The only I thing can offer up is that a couple called James Beggs and Sarah Elliot had a couple of children baptised in Ballyclug Church of Ireland parish - Andrew baptised on 27 August 1843 (born 1840) and Thomas baptised on the same day (born 1843) - the address was Cross (which is not far west of Kinnegalliagh in Ballyclug Civil Parish) and James' occupation was recorded as a mason.
A 74 year old Sarah Beggs died in Cross in 1882, she was described as the 'Wife of James Beggs a Stonemason':
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1882/06405/4839402.pdf
I think the following may be Andrew Beggs marrying a Rebecca Gaston in 1865, I'm reading the address as Whappstown (in Connor Civil Parish, again in the vicinity) and the marriage took place in the same church as the marriages for Hugh McCullough and George McCullough):
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1865/11558/8251677.pdf
Were James Beggs and Sarah Elliot the parents of Agnes Beggs? For now I really don't know.
-
According to at least one online tree- Agnes Ann (Beggs) McCulloch, mother Sarah Elliott, died 28 Jan.1879 Saltcoats, Ayrshire (death certificate should list parents)
Husband Hugh McCulloch died 29 Jan.1873 ‘Comber, Ireland’ but attached newspaper obituary is for a teacher named Hugh McCullough so date of death incorrect.
1881- Stevenson, Ayrshire
1. Sarah (1860-1883 Ayrshire)
2. William (1862)
3. Samuel (30 June 1864)- this is un-named son born 1864
4. Agnes (1866)
5. Margaret (1868)
6. Son (1871)
7. John (1872)
Tree #2 lists Hugh’s parents as William & Margaret, with Hugh died 26 Feb.1873 East Ayrshire
Tree#3 lists Agnes’ parents as James Beggs & Sarah Elliott
Tree #4 has daughter Jane m.(1880) Edward McBride in Belfast (very, very unlikely)
Would suggest checking Scottish records for 1881 census & deaths of Hugh & Agnes before trying to look at Irish records

Thanks for this information and i think George born 1841 could have been a brother of Hugh as he was born in 1835? Although the McCullloch name is spelt differently?

It seems Hugh and Agnes both died in Scotland suggesting the family moved to Scotland after the birth of their last child in 1872.
I have found the death certificate for Agnes Ann McCulloch who died in Saltcoats on the 28th of Jan 1879 and lists her parents as James Beggs (Mason, journeyman) and mother Sarah Beggs (nee Elliot)
Couldnt find Hugh McCullochs death certificate but suggests he may also died in Salcoats in 1873 from other searches.

... I have found the death certificate for Agnes Ann McCulloch who died in Saltcoats on the 28th of Jan 1879 and lists her parents as James Beggs (Mason, journeyman) and mother Sarah Beggs (nee Elliot)
It's also worth noting that the Thomas Beggs I mentioned at reply #5, ie. the son of James Beggs and Sarah Elliot, went on to marry an Agnes Cain in 1867 in Kilbirnie, about 10 miles northeast of Saltcoats, Ayrshire. I'm reasonably comfortable that it's him, because both parents' names are correctly mentioned and James' occupation is 'Mason'. A Samuel Beggs was one of the witnesses. I'm also comfortable that Thomas ended up in Seattle, King County, Washington, USA, where he died in 1924, for there's a death record that mentions both parents' names and other (eg. census) records to corroborate the move to the USA.
BTW, here's his grave:

Don't worry about spelling of names. We liked to use a variety for the same family here in Ulster but Scotland was the same. It's only in fairly recent times that spelling was consistant, people knew their exact date of birth, etc.
One thing to be cautious is about is assuming that everyone in the same area or even townland are related, especially when the families were in the area for many generations.

I'll bow out for now, I thought my James Beggs-Sarah Elliott lead was a good possibility, but let's see where the George McCullough - Fanny Stirling lead goes. :)

Yes hopefully as there are now a few of us looking at the links so hopefully we can find out more and start piecing it all together. Much appreciated for your advice

Yup, this is especially true for Beggs in this area. I’ve not really researched them directly, but I still have 12 James Beggs on my tree. I don’t think any of them are James Beggs the mason.

Steveforres: I'll bow out for now, I thought my James Beggs-Sarah Elliott lead was a good possibility, but let's see where the George McCullough - Fanny Stirling lead goes. :)
George McCullough was my great-great grandfather.
George had a brother - Hugh (1835) he married Agnes Begg (1839) in 1859. Agnes died 1879 in Scotland. They had 7 children: Sarah, William, Samuel, Agnes, Elizabeth, Margaret and John.

I am back on the trail of the my McCulloch branch and still looking for further info for this family when they lived in Co Antrim.
My 3rd Great Grandfather was Hugh McCulloch and was born in Ireland around 1835 and died in Scotland sometime after his sons wedding Samuel in 1883 (because he wasn't listed as deceased on the wedding certificate). Not been successful trying to find his death certificate yet and been searching the Scottish records with no luck. Maybe he went back his homeland after the death of his wife, Agnes Ann Begg in 1879? It's been a struggle for the last few years trying to find this piece of information.
From this information, I was hoping to find his parents details as all I have is his father was William McCullough and this came from his wedding cert to Agnes from 1859 in the Parish of Glenderry. Hugh did have a brother called George McCullough (1841 to 1901). He married Fanny Sterling and both are buried in Kilwaughter Cemetery and i have seen a picture on line but it doesn't have any dates. Have also been looking for Georges death certificate and only have the year of 1901 that he died. Maybe his death certificate will provide his parents details that I am looking for? I do have DNA links back to the decedents of George so I am confident I am looking in the right direction.
Their father William may have married a Helen ? as this was taken from another DNA connections family tree in this side of the family. This William could be connected to Hugh McCullough (Born in Ballymena, Antrim in 1810) and Jane Eliza McCullough (Born in Antrim in 1814) as I also have DNA connections back to this family. Their parents are listed as William McCullough and Margaret Graham.
I would be grateful to get any help or pointers to help piece this information all together.

In Ulster the name Ellen was used whilst in Scotland Helen was used more often, so if searching in Irish records check for Ellen as the Christian name.
