hello and thanx for allowing me to join, I hope I am asking the question in the right page.

I am trying to trace one set of grandparents ,I have got the following information , their marriage certificate and both death certificates .

his name Robert McCrory hers Maggie Adair, date of marriage 26.6.1874, place Ballycarry Presbyterian Church in the parish of Templecorran (sp?) .

they are both of Full Age and unmarried, he is a Militiman and there is nothing on her occpation.

his address is Ballymena and hers is Irish Quarters Carrickfergus.

his fathers name is William (Labourer) and hers Arthur (Mariner).

from the death certificates I found out that his mothers name is Ellen Nicol and hers is Mary Johnston

I would like to find out if they had brothers or sisters and where they lived ,I know her father died and her mother eventually moved to Scotland to be near Maggie and Robert who moved there sometime between 1874-1881.

I know they are in Fife in Scotland in 1881 as I have them in a census and according to that they had 2 children born in Ireland before they left, Arthur in or around 1875 and Elizabeth in or around 1878.

anything further would be greatly appreciated .

regards

Elaine
