Thanks, Dave. I'll keep an eye out and keep you in mind. Interestingly, my gg-grandmother was Margaret Hamilton and my gg-grandfather was Nathaniel Hunter. She was born in Ballybay, Co. Monaghan. Funny how the families keep finding each other and intermarrying. All the best, Joan P.S. I was looking at the Flax Growers Bounty List and knowing the affinity that the Hunters seemed to have of using the same forenames in each generation, I looked at your family names and grouped them by area of Co. Tyrone. Don't know if you've already done this, but if not, may help.
