Hi there- this thread may be closed, I'm a bit late to it, but I am looking into Israel Milliken and his time at the Peter Hill area of Belfast. I would love to connect to find out more if possible Gary? I've seen on a few forums you talk about him and your connection- you seem to have quite a bit of detail on his lineage- I'd love to hear more. Thanks so much in advance!

I believe I'm the great great grand daughter of Ellen. If I'm correct she married a man called William kirkwood.

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

I believe I'm the great great grand daughter of Ellen. If I'm correct she married a man called William kirkwood.

Would this be the marriage?
William KIRKWOOD married Ellen MILLIKEN on 8 December 1871 at Joymount Presbyterian Church, Carrickfergus. Both bride and groom living at Woodburn.

Hi

Note different addresses for the family in 1872 and 1874, when these two children were born.

Hi

Thought it unnecessary to name the two address, as they are clear to read on the link.  No need to duplicate….  Isn’t that what we are repeatedly told.
