Hello,
I am also researching the Albin family from County Armagh.
David Albin (born about 1813) and Mary Waugh (born 1822) were married in 1843. They moved to Mississippi between 1850 and 1854.
In an old family document, it was said that the Albins came over with the Waughs and Fordes. I may have found a sister of David Albin named Margaret Albin (born 1826) who married James Francis Forde (b. 1825). I am unsure that they are brother and sister, but am pretty sure that they are related. Margaret's father is listed as Robert Albin (from a marriage record).
David and Mary Albin had a son named Robert Albin (born 1849) in Portadown. He is my 2nd great grandfather.
Any information or direction that others can give me would be very welcome. I would also be happy to share what I have so far with others that might be interested.
Sincerely,
Randal Hansen
Surnames: Albin, Waugh, Forde
