Dumfriesshire / Re: Murrays & Fletchers of Canonbie
« on: Monday 27 October 25 21:25 GMT (UK)  »
My Murray line of interest could have some connection to your Canonbie family.
James MURRAY.b.1690Newcastleton.d.1790Newcastleton.Buried Castleton. m.Jean LITTLE.b.1699.Canonbie.Bapt.9.4.1699Canonbie.d.29.9.1743.Newcastleton.BriedCastleton.
Their son Adam - AdamMURRAYbc4.4.1727Deadwater.d8.3.1816Newcstle-on-tyne. mc1.1761[Deadwater.Castleton]MargaretHUTTON

Some of this information fits your scenario, Maybe extended family.

Wales / Re: Alexander Lewis help please!
« on: Thursday 18 September 25 22:06 BST (UK)  »
Very interested in this thread now that Thomas as a surname has cropped up.
Lewis as a first and last name appears regularly in my research in the general area of West herefordshire which includes Monmouthshire & Breconshire. If your early Lewis line has connections to Cecil, Gilbert,Howells, Parry and Thomas.

Many thanks AL.
More queries.
William John and Minnie - any details on 'Minnie'?
William John's grandfather - Matthew Graham.b.c.1715.d.after 1783 - did he have a sister?
maybe - David McCLURE Senior. Of Ballybofey & Findrum. b1711.Findrum. d.21.10.1784. m.7.1.1736.Convoy.Jane GRAHAM.bc.1714Convoy[father Andrew Graham(of Convoy).b.?.d.before 7.1.1736] ? Not a big trip from Momeen to Convoy.
Would this be one of William Boltons brothers?

Thanks to dogsarecute for reopening this case. I am interested in this thread for two reasons. One my McClure research has links to both  names in the general area and looking  for further connections.
Moses Lowry.b.1795.d.9.7.1850.Killyverry[WillProved1850-DerryWillIndex].m .Isabella LATTA. b.?.d.1964   [1850 Will proved 1850-William Galbraith,executor][Moses farmer - 1846-1856]   . Possible sister to Moses -
John McClure.b.1780[1791?].d.13.12.1862.Killyverry.[LondonderrySentinelObit] m.Isabella Lowry.bc.1791.d.? [Both 1791/1828/1839 Deed Raymoughy] [Presbyterian].
 Two i have book on the Lowrys that came to live in Kialla near Shepparton, Victoria and know the reputation and exploits of the cricket loving descendants.

William John Graham of Momeen..b.14.1.1868.Bapt.27.1.1868.St.Johnston.                  
[also went to Wheeling USA but returned to Ireland 1898]   - and to confirm that this was the William Graham who inherited the family farm? Did he have any children?

Also Jim [Graham] has been previously mentioned as a great provider of family information. Can someone tell me where he fits into the equation.

Hi Rathmore,
No.
The site belongs to Brian Anton.
I helped him with the McClure side of the Colhoun genealogy.
His research in this blog slotted perfectly into the Findrum McClure pedigree.

Cheers
Jack
