Anne GALBREAITH (nee LOWRY) and Esther GRAHAM (nee LOWRY) - are these sisters?

You mention no dates for the Maria you seek.  Could she be Maria Graham, daughter of William and Esther, who was born on 7 December 1863 and baptized at St. Johnston Presbyterian Church on 21 August 1864?    She married William Vance on 26 May 1881, and in June they emigrated, arriving in New York City on 12 July, and from there went to Wheeling, West Virginia.

Maria’s brother, William John Graham, also went to Wheeling, but returned to Ireland in November 1898.  Their sister, Esther Jane “Jessie” Graham, and half-sister, Elizabeth “Lizzie” Chambers, also went to Wheeling.

That could well be. I do have a Maria married to a William Vance but had no other information about her so many thanks.o other thing you may be able to clear up for me, I have Ester and Jane as two separate people on my tree with two separate baptism dates. Ester was baptised on 7.3.1870 and Jane on 4.12.1865. There is a possibility that Jane died and and Ester was then named Ester Jane as a result but I have no record of a death. Any ideas?

I have only the IFHF transcriptions and not the original baptismal records, but the following causes me to suspect copying errors—or there was a William and MARY at Momeen having children the same time as William and ESTHER.  (I haven’t found anything on a William and Mary except these birth records.)

I have seen the originals from St. Johnston Church. My dad got them for me to look at a few years ago. The writing is incredibly difficult to make out. The unknown isWilliam John. That ties in with my dates. Mary is also known as Ester and sometimes Hester. I'm not sure why her name changes so much but it can be confusing. The Craig is part of momeen sometimes referred to as momeen Craig in maps. You can also some parts of the Graham family referred to as coming from Drumdonagh which is the old name for lower Ardagh.
