Hello Pablo1,
I have been researching the Beggs and the Boyds, and the Beggs have a connection to the Strange family.
Although I haven't tied the Hills into my direct line, I have that Robert Hill married Jean aka Jane Boyd who was the daughter of Thomas Boyd and Margaret Wilson who are buried in Old Rashee.  Jane died March 25,1905.  Rachel Hill married William Graham.
Do you know the parents of Thomas John Robinson who married Eliza Jane Hill? James Robinson father Thomas married my Mary Lawson Beggs in 1872.

I am trying to figure out these Robinsons. do all the 4s belong to the same parents? How about the 5s and the 6s. I need help.
Peggy

Peggy, the numbers have to do with the generation, so for example,
Thomas John Robinson m. Jean Townsley  and Miss McKeown was the father
of  the following:

Samuel m. ?Jane Robinson?
Andrew
William m. Sarah Jane McCauley
James m. AnneTopping
Margaret
Grisilda
Sarah Ann
Mary
Archibald
John
Mary, 2nd Mary...perhaps first Mary died

Samuel m. ?Jane Robinson? were the parents of:
Mary
Jenny
Eliza
Thomas John m. Eliza Jane Hill
Sarah Anne m. Joseph Irwin
?Hugh James Robinson?

Thank you for this help.

Peggy, you are more than welcome.  When I find out more I will keep you informed.  One of my Macauley cousins is supposed to be getting back to me soon with information, as well. In Co. Antrim the Macauleys were related to the Gard(i)ners, Buchanans and Robinsons.  I am sure that other family relationships will later appear which will help us tie things together.

[Peggy13]

My Robinsons start with Thomas, no further info, then James born abt 1850 in Owensland, Ballyvoy, Co. Antrim, who married Mary Lawson Beggs of Ballyvoy,Parish of Kilbride in 1872. I have 9 children, one of which was Henry aka Harry who married Martha Alice Montgomery of the Parish of Rashee in 1909 in Canada. Henry's place of birth is given as Ballymena as per a descendant but I see Duncansland as per nidirect on his birth certificate, Douglasland as per his marriage certificate, and Duncansland as per his death record. I made contact with Robinson descendants literally 25 min. drive from me here in Canada but they don't wish to exchange info. Drat.
Another son of James Robinson and Mary Lawson Beggs was James Beggs Robinson and Mary had an older brother James Beggs. James Beggs Robinson was born July 27, 1874 and married Isabella Burns in 1910. They had a daughter Sarah in 1912 in Doagh but there are no other children on nidirect due to the 100 yr. restriction. Would love to know of further children for James and Isabella if anyone else is researching that branch. I have a possible death for James Beggs Robinson on Mar 27, 1950 in Glenarm, carpenter.James was a carpenter but I am not familiar with the location of Glenarm. Isabella was still alive if this is the correct James.
