James marries Sarah Sloan born 1883 Clonavaddy, County Tyrone to James Sloan and Sarah Oliver.  James marries Sarah 2nd Aug 1900 at 2nd Presbyterian Church, Parish of Derryloran, Cookstown, Ireland. Would the actual Church record have parents listed? James and Sarah have a son Robert McGucken b 1909 in Cookstown, County Tyrone. Unknown when James and Sarah died, but it was in Cookstown. James was a Publican living at 3 Old Cookstown Road, Cookstown Urban, Tyrone on 1911 census. Sarah was with him. Robert McGucken b 1909, marries Olive Sharpe pre 1937 when daughter Edna is born.  I am searching for the marriage of this couple, and would love to find the birth of Olive, probably after 1911.  Or the death of Olive. Robert died 1980 in Cookstown.
