They were more than likely Presbyterian.

DGBunch1972 Hi cousin. I would be interested in sharing info etc., with you. Eventually found out that Braid was an electoral division when the Ulster Covenant was signed.

Antrim / Re: White family of Whitehall Broughshane
« on: Thursday 08 January 09 11:12 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all, While researching information about the Braid Presbyterian Church I came across the following information.
The first was a biography of Jack White of Whitehall and in it, it says he was descended from Fulk White who came to Broughshane as a Presbyterian minister in 1687. I also found references to 3 books that have references to Fulk White and James White who I suspect was his son. If you do a Google search for Fulk White you should find these 4 references as well as other Fulk Whites in the 1500's.

Antrim / Braid, County Antrim. Where is it?
« on: Thursday 08 January 09 06:05 GMT (UK)  »
        According to my GGGrandfathers marriage certificate (Scottish BMD) he was born about 1815 in Braid, County Antrim. I cannot find an exact location using Google search, it gives me the Ballymena area. There are no Townlands or Civil Parishes of that name that I can find. Further searches
gave me the RC parish of Glenravel and Braid and the Presbyterian parish of Braid-island. Doing a search on this site I found someone else who had an ancestor listed on a marriage certificate as being born in Braid, county Antrim in 1817.
        Does anyone know where this area is?

Hi Steve,
                On one of your postings on this topic, I noticed you had a Jane Gilliland who was present at the death of Jane Twig at Garfield Place, Ballamena. Should that have been Ballymena as I am researching my family in that area. Also do you have the date for that event?
                   thanks, Gillie
