1840 freeholders reference

[RosemaryJoan]

There seems to be a discrepancy in the dates.  One record gives April and the other October.

Hi,
   Sorry, my mistake. Aghadowey's April date is correct. I'm not sure if this is revelant but there is a marriage of a Hamilton Hall to Maria McKee in Portadown First Presbyterian Church but the date is June 1848.

Regards

I'm not sure if this is revelant but there is a marriage of a Hamilton Hall to Maria McKee in Portadown First Presbyterian Church but the date is June 1848.

Thank you, i think this hamilton might be the son of hugh hall rather than joseph hall. But i will look into it. I am very grateful for your help!

Yippee! I think this must be my Ann Hall. She was baptised in Shankill church in Lurgan, and now it seems that she married there too.
Her father is Joseph Hall (definitely) and the first witness was William John (her brother my gg grandfather, who left for Melbourne a couple of years later).
The groom is Henry Hunter a saddler, whose father John Charles Hunter was a publican.
The second witness is H Francis Young.

Thank you Kingkerswell and RosemaryJoan this is just great. 

Joseph was a 'manufacturer' - might that mean he had some looms in his house?

What address was given for Annie on her marriage certificate?

Taberheaney. Which must be Toberhewney, where the baptism records put them twenty years earlier.

Now that I definitely have the siblings William John, Joseph and Annie Hall all in adulthood (hooray!) there are just another three to go: Hamilton, Henry and Thomas Robinson Hall. Another Hall family has a William (not William John)  and a Thomas (not Thomas Robinson), so they aren't mine.... I can't find my guys in the IFHF site, nor in the family search.
I think the only thing I can do now is widen my search of post 1846 marriages to include other parishes that are reasonably close to shankill.  Could someone please help me with the names of neighbouring C of I parishes from that period?
Cheers,

The map at above will help you see where Parishes lay in relation to each other.
