Jack: Might you have anything on John Crooks Sr., his wife Alies (Alice) maiden name unknown. John was born about 1709 in Antrim, N. Ireland at what I think might be Ahoghill, Glagorm Estate, Antrim. I hit a brick wall on this last year as parish records for Convenanters are almost non-existant. Thank you for any help you can give me. Gordon L.
