Armagh / Re: Albin
« on: Thursday 10 February 11 01:01 GMT (UK)  »
My family was from Mullabrack. My GG Grandmother was Sarah Albin - father Jacob and mother Sarah Anderson.  Sarah Albin married Andrew Erwin at Mullabrack in 1861. They emmigrated to New Zealand in 1863/64. The family story is that Sarah was living as a ward of her Uncle at the Bishop's Palace and Andrew was a stonemason on the estate. Don't know how true this is (might be a bit of the blarney) but it might also tie in with James Albin who was sexton of the church???? Can anyone please help with more info for this family?

I believe Sarah had at least 2 sisters.
    
Marriage, 12 May 1858, Mullabrack, Armagh, Ireland
Thomas Fullerton, 21, father- James Fullerton
Frances Matilda Albin, 21, father- Jacob Albin

Marriages, 25 Dec 1868, Mullabrack, Armagh, Ireland
George Whitten, father- Robert Whitten
Eliza Jane Albin, father- Jacob Albin

It also seems that Sarah named her own daughters after these sisters .
