If you go to  www.multimap.com and zoom in on Broughshane at the highest magnification, Knowehead (although not marked) is located 3cm above the "R" of Broughshane. The driveway to Knowehead house is straight on at the corner with the drive curving north.  The mill is the building to the right on the river bank

Thanks again.

Still can't get that audio working, unfortunately.

The Coleraine branch of NIFHS looks interesting. The cost of generating the cheque to mail overseas (I'm in Australia) to become a member is proportionately quite high. It doesn't look as if current members are interested in quite the same Whites as I am, or my Orr family.

Does anyone know where Raceview House was? It is also featured in a photograph on the Wilson website.

I note the multimap also shows White Hall. One of my mother's cousins visited the area a number of years ago. He is a White and, although he cannot trace the family further back than David White, I understand the occupants of White Hall welcomed he, his wife and daughter warmly.

I understand Sir Samuel McCaughey was born in  1835 at Tullynuey House, as per his gravestone. I gather this is written today as Tullynewy and have now been able to find it on multipmap, so thankyou.

Now back to finding out more about my gggrandparents and their ancestors and trying to make these Orr/White/McCaughey connections.

Perhpas it's now time to start another topic?

Thanks again
