Antrim / Re: Cameron, Islandmagee
« on: Wednesday 03 November 10 19:58 GMT (UK)  »
alanagr ... following our meeting ... I have found a reference to Nancy, wife of Samuel Cameron, who died 4/12/1885, and mother to Betty Cameron, who was born c.1854. This is close to Rosey Cameron, born c.1847.

Cameron Erected by Samuel Cameron in memory of his daughter Betty, who died 04 Sep 1876 aged 22. Also his wife Nancy who died 04 Dec 1885 aged 71.

St John's Church of Ireland, Islandmagee, graveyard.

Many thanks for the info. Patiently waiting on PRONI re-opening.

re the chn. of William Cameron and Anne Jane McAuley...James lived with his mother Annie (see 1901 Census) and seems to have married in his early 60s to Isabella (see 1911 Census); Thomas McAuley Cameron m. Rosey Cameron and had four chn. - Ann, James, William (my ggf) and Thomas; Anne Jane Cameron m. James Lillie/Lilley (to Scotland); Martha m. Hill Wilson (scrabohill); and Margaret - have no info on Margaret.

re chn. of Thomas McAuley and Rosey Cameron...Ann b.1871 - have no info; James b.1873 m. Agnes -----? and by 1911 Census had five chn., four living - all daughters Elizabeth, Annie, Gretta and Florrie; William b.1876(my ggf) m. Margaret Finlay and had six chn., Thomas, Samuel, Elizabeth, Agnes Finlay, James Finlay, and Rose; Thomas b.1879 m. Catherine (Ross?) and had two (?) chn. Robert Ross and Annie. It looks as though Thomas died as Catherine has married Samuel Shanks (1911) and they have had two chn. Esther and Samuel.

Scrabohill - where do you live? Would like some info about your ancestors. I live in Ballyclare. Have you an Ards connection? My wife is from Ards.

My great-grandfather was James Cameron, son of Thomas and Rosey Cameron. One of his daughters Gretta was my grandmother. Please contact me conijoni for further info.
