    3. Hi, I have just been in contact with some people who said Adgey comes from Dundrod in Co.Antrim and I was wondering if there was any info on Hendron. I have a Mary Hendron who married Archibald Adgey in 1852. Mary was 22 and Archibald 23. Her father was George Hendron and Archibald's father was David Adgey. Archibald died in Australia in 1853. In a book "Researching Irish Australians"there is an entry for Adgey which says..... Dundrod Presbyterian Church,Glenavy. Erected by Agnes Adgey in memory of her beloved husband David Adgey d 23.7.1871 also in the grave are son David d 1852 (7 yrs), Eliza Jane 8.6.1852 (15yrs) and Archibald who died in Australia 20 .4.1853, and 29.3 1875 Agnes herself. It is noted that some of the year entries in the book are wrong as it says Agnes died 74yrs in 1975 which makes her 100 yrs older than her husband who died 71 yrs in 1871.It also says Arch died in 1859 ,but on the Victorian BDM CD in OZ he died in 1853 and is buried in the Geelong Cemetery in Victoria Australia. Oh !!! the slip of the pen. Anyway if anyone can help me with this info it would be gratefully accepted Regards Chris OZ
