This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: northwestpioneer Surnames: Slack Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.tyr.general/6707/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Richard Slack, reputed to be born in 1801 in County Tyrone, is said to have emigrated from County Fermanagh to Ontario, Canada in 1854 with his family: Christine Anderson (m. 1830), Margaret, Richard, Thomas, James, Susanna and Christina. The family were devout Methodists. I would like to know: 1) Who was the father of Richard Slack? 2) His son Thomas was born on October 25, 1832 in Ireland, but I am not sure if it was in County Tyrone or Fermanagh? Would it be possible to find any records in this time frame to answer these questions? Where would I start looking? This is a biography written for Richard Slack Sr in Ontario: Richard Slack Sr., will be remembered as one of the early pioneers. He was born in County Tyrone, Ireland in 1801. When a young man, he enlisted in the 36th Dragoon Guards and was seriously injured while defending the garrison at Edinburgh from the attacks of a mob in less than two years after he enlisted. His injuries were such as rendered his recovery doubtful, but he eventually came around all right, received his discharge, and for his brave conduct was granted a pension for life. In 1830 he married Christine Anderson, and in 1854 they came to Melancthon locating on the west half Lot 9, Con. 4 O.S. (hughReid) Mr. and Mrs. Slack were devout members of the Methodist Church, and previous to securing a regular minister, Mr. Slack gathered together in his own house those of his neighbors whom he could induce to attend, and led them in the public worship of God.

Your story sounds identical to mine. My ancestors headstones read natives of Tyrone also. You must know the town, parish or area that your relatives are from in Tyrone to find out anything. The northern Irish archives suffered a fire in 1922 (?) and the records were destroyed. Therefore going to Parish church records is necessary and you must have more details. What I have been doing is scouring Canadian records for every relative that I am aware of for any clues. A monumental task, but I am making headway. I also found talking to older relatives helpful.......they have more info than they realize. Also, if there are others buried in the same plot as your relatives....search them out as well in the cemetery records. Ancestry.ca has a gold mine of Quebec records right now....worth the small fee.

The Pres. Historical Society should be able to help. At a guess, ACB is ? College Belfast, RUI is ? University of Ireland. However BA is his Bachelor of Arts degree from the university. I'm not sure what the various steps were to being qualified to be a minister - again the PHS should be able to help. As you have a definite dob for John Geo., you can get a copy of his birth registration from the General Registrar's Office in Ireland - just Google GRO Ireland - as you only want a photocopy of the birth, not a full certificate, it should cost about 4 Euros. This will give the place where he was born, the name & address (townland name if in a rural area) & mother's maiden name. I would have checked this for you at my local LDS, but they are closed for about 18 months due to renovation work! Marriage certs. in Ireland give names of groom & bride, age (usually states "full age" - over 21), marital status (bachelor/spinster etc), where they lived immediately before marriage, & names & occupations of both fathers. The ceremony usually, although not always, took place in the bride's church. This means that the records of that church can be checked for baptism & marriage records for her family. I think Samuel, whose details I sent you may not be John's brother, but I can't be sure. The Pres. Fasti normally records if a minister was the father/brother/son of another minister. Unfortunately Samuel's record does not have his dob, so it will be difficult to check whether he is John Geo.'s brother. Do you have a record of which church John belonged to? A lot of church records in Northern Ireland are held on microfilm in the Public Records Office in Belfast. I will be spending a lot of time there in the New Year, when I retire! I am happy to check for you if you need any look-ups. If there is anything else I can help with, just let me know.

The ones relating to John George and his son I'm sure are my family. I had run across the same information. I just haven't been able to confirm that Samuel is the right guy. I think he is but I'm not certain. I haven't found any record of his marrriage to tie him in. I If the Presbyterian Church info is correct, he studied at Queen's in Belfast. I've e-mailed them to see if they have any info. However, it always helps when someone else follows the same connections. I guess I should add the info into my tree and see if I can find other things to substantiate it, I had been holding off.

My ggf (his brother) was schoolmaster in Penang, his degree is MA and BA (RUI). Bachelor and Master of Arts? Had no idea about RUI. Samuel John HAMILTON, I'm not 100% sure about. I don't know if my family was in Down, always heard Armagh/Tyrone. And I understood he went to US and had four boys (one died). I haven't found his or one of his sister's birth records although there's a boy's NR which may be him. This record you sent doesn't have a birthdate that I can make out? I had found a Ship Llst to NY with wife Adeline, wondered about it. Asked my dad shortly before he died but don't recall the answer, seems to me he thought it was something else, maybe Alice. Are Adeline and Alice interchangeable but that should show up in the record you sent, right? Don't know father John's birthdate /place/wife's name to access other records. Does actual marriage cert give mother's names, the ones from Armagh Ancestry don't. John was schoolmaster at National School in Milford, Armagh, listed in Slaters Directory. There's also a John HAMILTON as Sub-Post Master, not sure if same or different people. It is helpful that a lot of the family has tone or two middle names. I will contact Queens University and see if they have any info that can help. Hopefully the Presbyterian Society will give me some information. Thanks agian for all your help....
