Antrim / Re: GRAVES OF O'HARA'S IN BUCKNA AND CARNMONEY
« on: Thursday 11 May 17 04:23 BST (UK)  »
I have just noted the correspondence re the O'Hara McCurley family. I am descended from David O'Hara and I wondered if your friend found any further information on her visit to Ireland. I have quite a lot of information about the O'Hara's and the Harris's, if your friend would like to make contact with me.

Hi Robin,
I have just stumbled on your post about the Harris Family. Given that it was some time ago, you may well have found the information you were looking for. If not, I can help. I have traced the Harris family back to the  late 1600s.

Regards

Hi Anita

According to the history they sailed on the Lady Cornwall, which left Gravesend 7 April 1853 and arrived in Petone 13 August 1853. They are not on the shipping list because they alighted by barque and missed being listed.
I am decended from Ann Eliza Newcumin's sister Harriet Frances.

Cheers

Thanks for your replies and sorry about the wrong date. As you discovered, it is indeed 1787.

Lincolnshire / Frances Newcomen
« on: Sunday 06 February 11 03:29 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for the ancestors /siblings of Frances Newcomen (Newcumin) b 1887 in Louth, Lincolnshire. She married John Rayner in 1810 and died 22 Feb 1866. For a number of years she was described as the innkeeper of the Marquis of Granby in Waddingham. Does anyone have this lady in their tree please?

Hi Luc,

Thanks for your message - I will do another post and then I will be able to reply! The authors of the NZ Rayner history made a conscious decision to go with the family bible material when they encountered conflicting information. They were mainly concerned with recording the family activities in NZ.

I came across your enquiry about John Rayner b 1811 and married to Helen Bland. John and Helen emigrated to New Zealand. According to a published family history which appears to be based on a family bible which contains some errors, John was born 22 Jan 1811 in Waddington. There seem to be no records of Rayners in Waddington but they are in Waddingham. They had a very useful habit of using the wives's surnames as second names in following generations so I am confident in the Waddingham location. The igi have a john born to John and Charlotte who was baptised on 26 Jan 1811. Someone has looked up this record for me and confirms that the mother is Charlotte. However John(senior) married Frances Newcomen in Louth 9 04 1810. The Newcomen name crops up several times in the family tree. There are no references to Charlotte that I have been able to discover. Have you managed to discover any further information about John and the Rayners since your original enquiry? I have some information on John senior's family if you are still looking.
