John Armstrong born 1782 Raughton Head
« on: Wednesday 13 August 14 22:20 BST (UK) »
Looking for details of John Armstrong, born around September 1782 at Raughton Head.

He married Jane Little (1789-1846) at Castle Sowerby, Cumberland, on 3 Aug 1807.

They had a number of children including Andrew Armstrong, born 1827.

Does anyone know what date John was born & who his parents were?
