Hi Moira, I am not sure if your email was for me but I am researching my Moffats whom married in Down County, Magheralin abt. 1816. I have the marriage info on them. Thomas Moffat married Jane Pickering. They ended up in Nova Scotia where they had children. They may have had a few children born in Ireland. Their children were William, Charlotte, Wesley, possibly John and possibly others.

Both William and his wife moved to Glasgow, where James MOFFAT, younger brother of William, was living around 1871. I am almost finished reading the film of births deaths and marriages in County Down and will be happy to check entries for you, and I would really appreciate any information further to the above.

Hello Christine Many thanks for your message, I appreciate your help - but I am looking for William Moffat who married Agnes Watson, and they are so elusive! Another Brick Wall! Thank you and best wishes from Moira. -----Original Message----- From: nir-down-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:nir-down-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Christy Sent: Saturday, 4 December 2010 12:39 PM To: nir-down@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [NIR-DOWN] MOFFET Hi Moira, I am not sure if your email was for me but I am researching my Moffats whom married in Down County, Magheralin abt. 1816.
