Hello to everyone I've just joined the list and thought I'd put my intrests out there. I'm looking for William White/Whyte (later Rev. William White) born 10 Dec 1856 most likely in Barrycarry. His father was Edward White and I have heard that his mother's maiden name was Beggs but I'm not entirely sure as yet. william went to Queen's University, Belfast 1873-1881 and graduated with a BA and MA. Married Agnes Jane Carleton 28 Jan 1879 in Newtownards. Had three children in Ireland, Robert Victor; Edith Adelaide; and Gertrude Maude. Immigrated to New Zealand in 1885 where he was ordained and had one son, William Theodore, in 1886. Would also appreciate any information on Agnes. She was born November 1856. Her parents were Robert Carleton and Margaret Jane Huddleston and they lived in Greayabbey. Natasha _________________________________________________________________ Need more speed?

Natasha and List - My Antrim roots are families named WISEMAN and DUNLAP, circa 1800-1840, from a tiny Townland called Ballywatermoy not far from the village of Cullybackey, the city of Ballymena and the hill of Slemish. My son and I visited there last week for the first time, and believe we found the ruins of a cottage and barn once inhabited by our branch of the Wisemans. Because the Dunlaps were more widespread throughout Antrim than the Wisemans, we couldn't find anything that might have had a real connection to them. I've been around for three-score and ten, and this Wiseman 'finding' has to be one of the great thrills of my life. "The circle has been closed..."

Bob, Might you know of a Rachel Moore Dunlop/Dunlap that was born circa 1830 in County Antrim...probably in and around the Ballymena/Broughshane area? As I know she married Thomas Gordon of the Townland of Drumlickney/Drummack, just outside of the Village of Broughshane. They removed around 1853 for Ontario Canada, not exactly sure of their arrival in Canada...where they lived the remainder of their lives. She and Thomas named a son William Dunlop Gordon. On her death certificate, parents names were not listed, and to date, haven't found an obit on her.Does her name ring a bell from any of your Dunlap/Dunlop research? Her middle name was "Moore", and not another married name. I am related by blood via the "Gordon" line, but wanted to fill out more on Rachael. Pax! Michelle A.
