Hi I was wondering if anyone had any information on the following:- James McKeon (McKeown) (of Ballynask) married Sarah Houston in 1845 at Ballycartin? Church, parish of Ballycor and Rashee, County Antrim. Sarah's father was Thomas Houston, farmer. James father was James W. Their son David McKeown born in Ballyclare, 1857. Want to find out what other siblings David had. Have come across a Houston McKeown born 7 Jan 1871, Ballynure, Antrim parents were James McKeown and Mary McVeigh. They had another son Samuel McKeown born 25 July 1874. Trying to find out if these McKeowns related to mine. Perhaps this James a brother to my David? Any help or suggestions of where to search greatly appreciated.
