Mcinteer- Brick Wall

[Ange30]

Hi I'm trying to find information on a Hugh Mcinteer b.1854 in antrim.I have looked over many sites to try and find him but no luck,All i know about him is he was born in 1854,his father was Thomas and his mother Maria.I have no other info exept he had a brother called Alexander b. 1853 Also in Antrim.I hope someone can point me in the right direction as to where else to look 
Ohh and it seems that both brothers were policemen so its possible that Thomas was too as a record was found listing him in edinburgh as a policeman.I think they moved from Ireland around 1860 would there be a perticular reason as to why they would leave?
Thank you all in advance,
Ange.

Update.....it seems they may have moved before 1860 as i have found a sister Mary born in 1856 in edinburgh and Thomas is listed as a police constible.

Mary's Scottish birth certificate should list date and place of parents' marriage as well as mother's maiden name. You can search for it and download scanned image from www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk if you haven't done so already.

 Hi all i'm trying to trace Thomas mcinteer born 1828 in antrim,He married maria dunbar but cannot find a marriage for them.I would like to find Thomas' parents too as this family is a major headache,they seem to appear from nowhere,maybe the spelling of the name changed as on Thomas' daughters birth entery it is spelled mcintee.I know Thomas moved from ireland between 1854 and 1856 and he was living in edinburgh in 1856 when his daughter was born.
Any help or info on where i might look would be great,
Thanks for looking.

Have merged your two threads since they are both about the same Mcinteer family.

Didn't you get the birth certificate for Mary Mcinteer (1856) as I suggested in May? It should list date and place of her parents' marriage.

You haven't mentioned the family's religion but if Thomas and Maria married in a Catholic ceremony there will only be a church record of the event (pre-registration church records sometimes don't contain much detail). If it was a non-Catholic ceremony after 1845 it will be listed in the civil registration index and you'll be able to order a copy of the certificate (although far less information than Scottish certificates).

Have a look at Introduction to Irish Records and My Ancestor came from Ireland - where do I start?.
