Saw your post . My great grandfather james greene  died in canada in 1884 . I beleive he had  brothers or cousins named thomas and francis married in killkeel . Tom married sarah mcilroy and francis married annie keith , both in the 1860,s .There also may have been another brother named waring who married margaret orr . These people had mamy children who could have served in ww 1. Any info would be greatly appreciated.   WILLIAM GREENE :D

I also found a waring greene of kilkeel husband of margaret orr and father of john and francis b. 1846 d. 1894 . This may be another brother of thomas , francis and james. James had a son named waring.

Also found a thomas greene of loughenisland  registered owner of the sloop rose .


If anyone can shed any light let me know. Thanks Wiiliam J. Greene USA

Thanks again for all the input . When i plugged in downpatrick as a registery , i got the following :

Francis greene    The father b. 1802 d, 1873 reg. downpatrick (may be father of thomas and francis) .

Jane anne greene   (jane keown ?
 ) the mother and possible wife of francis the father .


Thomas greene  Possibly a son married to sarah mcilroy b. 1836 d. 1897 reg. downpatrict. Children margaret , francis catherine , letitia , francis john ,john , james ,mary elizabeth , and annie jane .

Francis greene  Possibily a son married to anny keith daughter of george keith. b. 1842 d. 1907 downpatrick registration district. children francis waring , annie jane ,thomas james , and george .  I can,t find a townland
for any of these people
James immigrated to canada b. 1839 d. 1884 toronto canada.

Francis john, son of thomas , immigrated to canada in 1901 . Can,t find any further trace.

Have been unable to find Francis the son on 1901 census

James was no doubt a relayive possibly johns brother. Wish i could find out more about john fleming and the wm rosses.I did hear from my father that the ross side of the family were fairly well to do . The big question is why would james greene and lizzie fleming greene take the entire family back for 3 to 4 years then return to canada with two new baby,s . The cost of the round trip had to be substantial .Not to mention the difficulties of travelling with two babys.Thanks again for the help . BILL GREENE

I don,t have birth dates for anyone other than those shown . I don,t have information on francis and janes mothers and fathers. Son james was born in 1839 . So francis probably dates to early 1800s.I would also be interested to know if any decendents are around. THANKS WILLIAM GREENE
