James CRAIG birth, please
« on: Tuesday 10 August 10 18:21 BST (UK) »
My grandfather James Craig was born in Antrim to William Craig (1847 Templepatrick) and Martha Finlay, both of Browndod, who married in Donegore 25 Jan 1867.
William was a teacher in Browndod at the time of marriage.
The first child I can find is James' sister Margaret, baptised 1873 in Co Down, so James was probably born between 1867 and 1873 in Co Antrim.

Hi,
   A parent search on the IGI gives the following children for this couple:-
25 Sept 1867 Millicen (sic) Co. Antrim
28 Apr 1871  Joseph Co. Antrim
2 Apr 1873    Margaret Co. Down
15 Feb 1875 Jennie Finlay Co. Down
9 Mar 1880   Ann Jane Cultra Co. Down

Once again no James.

Regards

Wow, I thought Finlay was a boy! And Joseph is a new one too.
Thanks.
