The church record does not name their parents. Would there be other church records that might show a relationship?

There are only 8 children listed. I have nine in their genealogical record. The missing one is another Mary.
The only place she (age 16) I have found her is on the passenger list with Nancy and children Robert, Rachel & Elizabeth when they came to Canada 10th September 1882 on the Sardinian.
Do you have any Hunters that married a Curry and emigrated to Canada? The name I have is Nancy Curry, but that can also be shortened for Agnes, or Ann can also be a nickname...

David Hunter 1825-1875, son of David 1744-1804 & unknown spouse

Thank you, I will check this out. Just got back from N Ireland and took some photos of headstones of Currys in the Bushmills area, hoping to sort out now that we are home. Thanks for your response! -Jill
