I presume you were aware that John was the first born in Dalry since Samuel his elder brother b.1849 was born in Killinchy I believe. James was a mining contractor (coal of course) and quite comfortably off with respect to the times. I have a photo of the family with first eight of his ten offspring including his eldest my granny Ann. Regards,Nelson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
