Andrew Henrie is recorded on the rent roll of Artikelly, collected by Herbert Maxwell in 1610

I think i’ve seen all of the church records and the Muster Roll, alongside the 1831 census but not the rest of that.

It is difficult to track my surname because it seems to have changed spelling quite frequently.  And now we’ve learn’t that there was two branches in the area, so that will be an added difficulty.

Certainly noticed the spelling changing, the whole time.

Im sorry I have no idea about the Cummins's on that 1740 Protestant census.
But although there were several Cummings/ Cummins 's in Magilligan perhaps your branch originated in England?  The London Livery Company were granted large tracts of Land in Londonderry during the plantations.

Its a pity about Gedmatch too.

Magilligan was always Church land, The livery companies had no influence in Magilligan other than the movement of people from there neighbouring lands

It was very normal for people in Magilligan to wait to middle/later age to have children. Rev Butler noted that he was concerned with the fact that the protestants were basically waiting to go to America and didn't marry.

Magilligan Presbyterian Ancestry and Genealogy book will be out in a few weeks. Advertised on FB

I found a Luke Caldwell of the Upper Drummonds leave in his will money to Elizabeth and husband James McCracken 1760s. My McCrackens would have been residing next door in Ballymagoland. Has anyone any marriage details for Elizabeth and James McCracken? Would James father be on the marriage cert?

Many thanks

Thank you it's much appreciated. I can not find any info on this Thomas McCracken. If you can find anything on him or before I would be very happy.
