Hi everyone
I am no further along in finding my Andrew. I love the idea of the ship owner, conjures up pictures of interesting places, dangers etc. How great it would be to have a colourful character in our tree.
In 1871 my Andrew's wife and 3 sons are staying with her sister. There is no sign of him in Cumberland. Is it him in Cheshire (It was not Liverpool - I was wrong)? There is no way I can confirm that. He could of course been back in Ireland or at sea. Can't have bee too far away because his youngest sons were 11 mths and were registered by Andrew. I still would like to connect him to Andrew (the elder), his wife Jane and their daughter Elizabeth who were in Cumberland too and were also born in Belfast.
I need to find more about Andrew & Jane who married in Ireland (Elizabeth was born there).
Can someone tell me what birth and marriage records are available in Ireland, are they at PRONI, can they be obtained via the internet. I don't think I am ever going to solve this one, particularly from the other side of the world.

Thanks Steve for that link. It does help to understand where this information is coming from.

Audrey, Hi,
Jane Jamieson?
I don't know. Can you expand more on where you got that? and do you know any more about Andrew and Jane.

Hiya Val,

I bought a 1970-1 Bangor, Co. Down, Directory, yesterday.
Nine Taggarts are listed. I am not sure whether you wish to add these people to your list.   

All the Best, Chris

Hiya Val,

Hi Chris, your right about needing more details on Andrew who died in 1886  but how to get it? 
The challenge is out to everyone who reads this and would like to help.  Chris tells me that Rootschat.com is THE  BEST  so lets see just how  "THE  BEST"  it really is  . L.O.L.

Hiya Val,

Don't think you are getting out of it that easy :D You are a member of Roots Chat too.
How good are you at searching ???

As a matter of interest where is the Taggart banishment from Co. Antrim by Oliver Cromwell recorded? I feel such an event should have had a reference so that others could look at the original. Was the document found in the Linenhall Library, National Archives or PRONI and why has that point of reference not been noted?   

All the Best, Chris

Well I got this information for a rootschat member.
"D., ROBERT BREWSTER TAGGART, Stated Clerk of the General Assembly of the
Presbyterian ... He was ruthlessly deprived of his office and was banished"

References to Robert Brewster Taggart may help ....

1. Psalmody A document from the Christian Classics Ethereal Library at Calvin College
2. Contributers and Collaborators, Volume IX Robert Brewster Taggart, Vineland, N. J.
3. Leo determined to be rid of Photius. He (Photus) was ruthlessly deprived of his office and was banished.
This is in that document from the Christian Classics Ethereal Library at Calvin College, Val. 
I'm not wildly happy about the information that particular RootsChatter gave you, Val.
William Henry Roberts, D.D., LL.D., Stated Clerk of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A. 
Robert Brewster Taggart, Vineland, N. J.
I have a hunch we are going up the garden path with this particular search. I find it strange the person who posted you the information has not been following this thread and posted a message quoting their source. Was there a mention of the date when the banishment occurred or a mention of Oliver Cromwell on the message you received? Don't forget, Cromwell was in Ireland in the middle of the seventeenth century and massacred a great many people. I don't imagine too many records were kept of those who were massacred and those who were banished. What about tracking down Robert Brewster Taggart to see if he has a family tree. Calvin College may be able to assist you find him. Now, have you any other messages about Oliver Cromwell so that we can check them too? It would be great to solve this mystery.

Best Wishes,

Chris
