I have been told that my two male lines from my grandfather's was Scotch-Irish. I am trying to find their lines back to Northern Ireland.

Goosey Lucy & Rabbit B.

No Problem!

I seem to be quite lucky (sometimes) with Internet Search Engines!

Just wish I could have the same kind of luck with some of My Brickwalls! ::) ;)
Hi Pegassuss if you put in your search engine Bangor Family Forum you will see numerous Bangor places of help.
I have used this for Llanfairfechan in Wales and found people very helpful

If you havent already, I'd suggest having a look in Scotland for them (even briefly) Lots of to-ing and fro-ing from Ireland to Scotland in the early day.My  gtgrandad was in Glasgow from about 1860; met my gtgranny there (she was born there but  her parents from County Down and County Armagh) a few children born in Glasgow; then settled in Belfast 1878 ish and more children born. The Scottish records really are informational: even has month/day/year and place of marriage on their Birth registrations.

This thread is supposed to be a Poll What Country is your research? and not intended for posting queries or advice on research.

vlrowland has a new thread so if you can help please post information or advice on that new thread and not on this topic.

Oh gawd aghadowey… what have I done wrong…?… this stuff is nothing to do with me, so why do I get mail for it, I don’t understand… I’m scared stiff to push a button now in case it’s the wrong one…

Calm down, lad, if you put a message on a thread you get an email every time someone puts another message on the same thread. It keeps us all in touch with each other.
Panic not, all perfectly natural... :)

Hi Rootschatters,

Most of my research is Australian Colonial, but before that quite a number came from London, Sussex and Kent.  I've got at least one Scot and a few Irish thrown in for good luck.  So I guess I'm a mixed breed...
