Hello again Fran21
the location of where the father John Gourley lived at the time of Roberts marriage was halfway along the Magherascouse Rd, in the townland of Magherascouse the closest village/town being Ballygowan . They lived about a mile and half NorthEast of Ballygowan
I looked entry up Griffiths valuation John Gourley

Robert Gourley father was John Gourley farmer of Magherascouse townland
John ‘s farm map ref 15 in the townland consisted of
19 acres 3 rood and 25 perchs of land and a house valued at £1 fifteen shillings.
I don’t know what else you know ! Nevertheless in case it helps heres more info for you
To see the plot today go to google map find Magherascouse Road which runs from Ballygowan all the way to the old ballygowan Road . travel north on the Magherascouse . keep going past a lane on the left hand side then Loughview Road on the East side, the next turning on the west side of the divides into two lanes the right hand lane leads to the homestead original site via a sudden 90 degree turning north then use satellite view to see two buildings are visible possibly separated by a patch of Gorse?
I finiahed off a historical directory of Comber civil parish in 2008 , download free 30 mgbits
http://www.comberhistory.com/comber%20directory.pdf which doesn’t include the census
you will see the several references to Magherascouse in these entries for Gourley
but look up Magherascouse please.
