Title: William Gordon - Newry born 1846
Post by: Rich2160 on Thursday 16 March 23 21:17 GMT (UK)
Hello all,

I am trying to find more information on my GGG grandfather William Gordon. The oldest record I have been able to locate is how wedding certificate to Jane Forsythe in Newry in 1868.

Can anyone either point me towards his family and/ or any local history resources for the area?
Any help much appreciated
