Title: Alexander Taylor with spouse Martha McCann
Post by: wyanga on Thursday 06 April 23 03:20 BST (UK)

 Dues anyone have any records for Alexander Taylor and Martha McCann.
I have them as parents of a William Taylor baptism 14 Feb 1813 at Claughey from a St Patricks , Ballymoney  Church of Ireland record .
   Alexander does not appear in the Tithe records  for Ballymoney in 1825 or any other records that I have found.
  Any help would be very much appreciated

   Thank you for your reply. I can only say that the Alexander Taylor at Carneatly is also included in Rev Park's 1st Presbyterian Church 1817 Census and his wife was Jean. They were likely Presbyterian.
   I expect the Alexaner I am looking for to be church of Ireland.
 I have a copy of all the Tithe Applotment names for Antrim. These would all be lanowners or business
 owners, labourers would not be included.
