McMullen of Turnarobert townsland 1865

[Themassons]

My great grandfather Thomas Fulton who died in Port Glasgow, Scotland in 1949 was born in Turnarobert townsland, Antrim in 1865 to a Thomas Fulton of Alcrossagh and a Mary McMullen of Turnarobert, I have lots of info on the Fultons of the area (although if anyone has anymore I'd be interested to know) but Mary McMullen has me at a dead end.  I cannot find a marriage certificate so it appears they did not marry, Thomas died in 1886 (I have his will) but no idea what happened to Mary.  Does anyone know anything of any MCMullens of the area, I much appreciate any help, thank you

Hi,
   The Griffiths Valuation records show a John McMullan living in the town of Armoy but renting land in Turnarobert in the early 1860s

Hi, thank you, yes I saw him on the griffiths and wondered if he was possibly her father, did it have an address noted in Armoy?

[aghadowey]

Armoy would have likely been the 'address' but you can check Griffith's yourself to confirm that.

There are LOTS of McMullans in that area so don't be too quick to assume anything (after about 20 years I still haven't sorted out our McMullan connection there completely).

Can you confirm whether or not the Thomas Fulton (d,1886) that I found is yours?

[Themassons]

Thank you
Yes that Thomas Fulton is mine, his father was Hugh Fulton, grandfather John Fulton, I have all their wills

[aghadowey]

My query, before I post anything else, is whether or not this is your Thomas Fulton who died in 1886-
