The Killinchy Alexanders were mostly living at Carrickmannon, Raffrey and Drumreagh and the Ros Davies web site will contain many details. I think most were buried in the Ballygowan Presbyterian Graveyard. One family lived in Carrickmannon House. The Killinch Presb. Graveyard has: HAMILTON (Railed enclosure with KIRK stone and modern Hamilton stones) Erected by George Hamilton of Raffery who d. Feb.12 1812 aged 55. Also his wife Margaret COUSSE alias Hamilton who d. Aug. 15 1803 aged 36. Also his son George aged 2. Also John Hamilton who d. Jan.23 1846 aged 52. Also two children who died young. John Stewart d. Jan 1865 aged 52. Mary Hamilton d. May 29 1873 aged 66. KIRK In Hamilton enclosure 1811. Erected by John Kirk of Barnamaghery who d. May 1 1826 aged 85. Also his wife Jane Kirk alias HAMILTON who d. Ap. 26 1826 aged 72. (The Kirks I believe were originally from Raffery) No Alexanders or Hamiltons listed in Killinchy Non-Subscribing Presb. Graveyard. If there are any present day descendants they might be listed in the N.ireland Directory at bt.com Killinchy likely listed under Comber or Newtownards. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rachel McPhee" <nandr@blueyonder.co.uk> To: <nir-down@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 20, 2008 12:57 PM Subject: Re: [NIR-DOWN] gravestone inscriptions or death records fortheKillinchy Non-Subscribing Presbyterian Church and/or theKillinchy Presbyterian Church (Co Down) >I also have an interest in this area, I am looking for surnames HAMILTON >and > ALEXANDER in Killinchy and surrounding areas from around 1800 - 1850, I > know > it's a big timescale but am stuck at a great big brickwall and any > information would be a start.
