Can anyone help with this? I'm looking for a marraige between Robert Simpson and Margaret Boutcher (Butcher) about 1865 possible in the Roe Valley area.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your prompt reply, but I despair off ever getting information on the Irish side of the family. I is just a case of plodding on and hoping something turns up.

Thanks again.

Hi
My gmother was Elizabeth Hunter who at the time of her marraige to David Taylor at Myroe Pres church in 1895 was living at Crindle Townland. Her father was George Hunter, I wonder if she could be related to the above Hunters.

Aghadowey,

Thanks a lot for that, I think from something my sister said some time back William may have been in Scotland at some time with David. I visited Limavady last year and did manage to get some information, but I would like to think I might have some cousins still in the area. that would be great!!

Thanks again Tom

Hi
I am searching for information about my Fathers family:

GGfather James Taylor Married Rachel Henderson in Myroe Presbyterian Church in the Parish of Tamlaght Finlagen on 08/5/1862.

Grandfather David Taylor Married Elizabeth Hunter in Myroe Presbyterian Church in the Parish of Tamlaght Finlagen on 21/11/1895.

Grandfathers brother Robert James Taylor Married Margaret Simpson in Myroe Presbyterian Church in the Parish of Tamlaght Finlagen on 22/06/1899.

My grandfather David Taylor moved to Glasgow some time between 1895 and 1900. He moved to Govan Glasgow where my father William Taylor was born. David was a shoemaker journeyman and I believe he was born in Drumachose in 1872. I believe some of his brother went to Glasgow but later returned to Londonderry.

I would be very grateful if anyone has any knowledge of the family or of existing relatives.

Your TomC
