Hi Dorothy
I have recently been researching my McKee family from the Ballygrainey area in Co. Down. I 'm not sure if your Robert is any connection to my McKee's, but in my research of the Ballygrainey Presbyterian church, I found the following baptism records that may be helpful for you:
Robert Houston McKee born 24 Sep 1842 - parents Robert & Jane McKee.
Baptised Ballygrainey Presbyterian 29 Sep 1842
Samuel McKee born 26 Feb 1847 - parents Robert & Jane McKee
Baptised Ballygrainey Presbyterian 7 Apr 1847
With Robert McKee's middle name being Houston, I thought it probable that Houston is the mother's maiden name. So Jane could be the Jane Houston you mentioned.
If I come across any other relevant information, I'll let you know.
Regards
Lou
