Looking for Boyd,s of Co. Antrim. Around the area of Ballynure. We have a James Boyd  b. 30 July 1827 m. Anne Weatherup b. 3 Jan 1829 in Ardboley, Co. Antrim. They both died in Commons, Co. Antrim. They had issue;
William b. 1853, David b. 1853, James b. 1857. Margaret b. 1859, Mary Jane b. 1860, Robert b. 1861, Thomas b. 1863, Mary b. 1866 and Alexander b. 1868. At one time Alexander was an Alderman in Belfast. Any help appreciated. Looking for a burial place for James and Anne.

Do you know if your David born 1853 got married and had a daughter, Martha who married Richard Sharpe?Richard & Martha married 11.11.1893 in Belfast, Gt Victoria St Presbyterian church.

I have searched all Martha’s born between 1872-1881 but have not found one born on the dates we have for Martha’s birth 20th of February 1878 even though marriage certificate would indicate 1873

Not sure if knowing the names of their children would help identify their family but I understand there is a naming protocol. Not sure if anyone ever chose not to follow it.
