Hi Scott
It has been a long time since you posted to this site. I hope this reply reaches you somehow. I am related to the Rougiers and Davies. My great aunt years ago told me about a Davie relative who went to Australia I believe in the early 1900's. Is that when your family went to Australia. Was it a member of the Davie family who went. Although she is no longer alive, I would like to solve this family mystery.
thank you
Gayle

Hi
I am also a direct descendant of Belinda Rougier and James Davie. I was working with the name Ruiger as that is how it was noted on their daughter Mary's death certificate. I am so glad to have found these postings and to find some other descendants of Belinda.

Thank you so much for looking this up.  The date I had was an estimate due to the birthdate of my great grandmother. I  found this yesterday on the internet regarding the construction of a church in Lisburn.  I was thinking Ann Jane's father may have been James:

Plans and specifications were prepared by the late Sir. Charles Lanyon. Two local builders, Messrs. Arthur Morgan and James Vernon, were appointed to build the edifice with seating for 500 worshippers, at a total cost of £4,800. The “New Church” as it then was called was opened for worship on 20th November 1842 and=2 0the special preacher was The Hon. and Rev. Henry Ward, Rector of Killinchy and son of the Second Viscount Bangor. The church is built of black stone, chiselled from a design of Mr. Laynon. The tower is a beautiful structure, 72 feet in height; it is of the ancient Gothic school of architecture, surmounted by castellated turrets.
During the first 21 years of its life, the “New Church” remained under the general control of the Cathedral of Christ Church, Lisburn, otherwise Lisburn Cathedral, as a Chapel of Ease, and its first Curate was the Rev. John Nash Griffin; followed in 1845 by the Rev. J. Hudson, whose incumbency was of a short duration. He was succeeded by the Rev. Hartley Hodson in 1846 who was appointed Rector of Derrykeighan in 1863.


It does fit in with the information you gave me.  thank you for taking the time to look it up

Hi I just saw your post on Roots Chat.  I also have Morgan's from Northern Ireland.  They were from Lisburn, but as I have other relatives from Balinderry (I believe a parish in Lisburn), there may be a relationship.  My great great grandfather was Hugh Morgan born about 1845, I think in Lisburn.  Their family was Church of Ireland though. I don't know Hugh's parents.  He moved to Canada in the early 1900's and his wife was Ann Jane Vernon.
thanks
Gayle
