Burnside, Allen

[xenia1]

Hello,

Can someone help me to find John Burnside, who married Sarah Allen in Londonderry. I can't find when they got married. i would like to find his parents and Sarah's parents. I know that there son John married Mary Young. Unfortunately I don't know when they got married, at a guess between 1859-1864. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

According to index at www.irishgenealogy.ie John Burnside m.1859 Co.Londonderry to Sarah Allen.
IGI at www.familysearch.org lists 5 children:
1. Mary Anne Burnside born 2 Feb.1864 Bellaghy dist., Co. L'derry
2. Alexander Burnside born 15 Jan.1867 Bellaghy dist.
3. William Burnside born 13 Nov.1868 Co. L'derry
4. Sarah Burnside born 1 May 1874 Co. L'derry
5. John Burnside born 9 Mar.1877 Co. L'derry

There are probably children born before registration began in 1864 but it is quite possible that the family lived in the Bellaghy area and the parents might have gotten married somewhere in that area.

P.S. the marriage will list the fathers not the mothers of the couple.

Thanks a lot.  Im also seeking information on John Burnside and his wife Nelly Miller.   married 1840 or prior.  Known connection to John burnside *and Sarah Allan but dont know how.     

John Burnside* had a sister Alice Kennedy probably older than him.      John B died at Kilbery   Londonderry on 15 May 1908.    Also in family Robert Burnside died 1 december 1927.

Im g grand daughter of Ellen Burnside  daughter of John and Nelly (above).  Will pass on any other info i obtain.

Hi Alison,

Can I ask how you know that John Burnside/Nelly Miller have a known connection to John Burnside/Sarah Allen if it's not known how they are connected?

Have you looked at the 1911 Irish Census for Killyberry [http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Londonderry/Bellaghy/Killyberry/607722/ ]?  There is a Robert Burnside with wife Lizzie and a brood of children including Kennedy Burnside.  With the family are Robert's brother John [34] and his sisters Jane [43] and Lizzie [31].  Might be a coincidence!

Also in Killyberry in 1911 are another Robert Burnside with wife Lizzie and his mother Sarah, who I believe to be Sarah Allen who incidentally is my great great grandmother 

It's possible that John Burnside [husband of Nelly Miller] was the brother of [or otherwise related to] the William Burnside Princess has mentioned but I haven't been able to get back beyond the marriage of John and Sarah.  I also have a copy of a will relating to the death of John Burnside in 1908, who I believed to be the husband of Sarah - I don't have it to hand, so I'll look it out later in the week.

Hopefully the 1901 Irish census will give us all some answers next week!

Best wishes

Rockford
