Hello Wendy,

Rev. William Grayburn may be mentioned in one of Rev. J. B. Leslie's volumes on the Clergy and Parishes of the Church of Ireland.

All the Best,

Christopher

Thanks Wendy,

This is a difficult one to answer. They are in the Central Library, Royal Avenue and Linenhall Library which are both in Belfast. They are in the South Eastern and Eucation Library  Board Headquarters in Ballynahinch but not in the Ballynahinch branch library. They are probably in Main libraries throughout Ireland as well as the Headquarter Library of each county. Since I do not know where you are located I do not know if there is a copy in your local library.

All  the Best,  Chris

I am most interested in this thread. I am researching a Sir "Tubby" Vandeleur Molyneux Greyburn (1881-1943) aka Grayburn. He was a grandson of Rev. William Grayburn of Dublin. "Tubby's" father was a William Echlin GRAYBURN (born Kilternan near Dublin 1849 - the 6th & last child of rev. William Grayburn 1816-1891). I am interested to know the name of the wife of Rev. William as well as the ancestors of either of them.

According to some notes (but no dates) from an Irish great grandfather, Rev William Greyburn, was married to Anna Molyneux, daughter of James Molyneux and Anne Hathorn. According to LDS IGI Anne Hathorn was born 17 Oct 1770, St Peters, Drogheda, Louth Ireland.
Hope this helps.
