Welcome to Rootschat. What other information do you have and what would you like to know?

Information from Families of Ballyrashane says "The Calvins are connected to the Millars of Islandeffrick through the marriage of their ancestor to Jane Millar of Tullans." There's a large family tree in the book.

I constructed my family tree with the assistance of Dr. Mullin's book (Families of Ballyrashane) He was my minister at Ballyrashane and also a neighbour and allowed me access to his handwritten work in Coleraine Library with the permission of Miss Kennedy. In fact in the book John is not mentioned but Dr. Mullin obtained that information for me through the files of the Coleraine Chronicle. I have now hit the proverbial stonewall and this is the reason for my posting. I have researched several sources and hope that someone may have information.
