Hi looking for inforamtion regarding the Gault line. Robert gault was born Taylorstown Antrim and married Eliza jane Cunningham ina church at Grange of Ballyscullion. His father was William- have not been able to find much on him. I did find William Gault who married a nancy McDowell in 1827 at Taylorstown, I do feel this is my William. Robert and Eliza move to Australia in 1862 to Western Australia- have alot of information since arrival into Australia. Eliza's father's name was James Cunningham andher mother ?Agnes ?Nanct Harper. Any help greatly appreciated. Regards dawn

  • Hi Dawn

    We may have a connection. My Cunningham family are from this area. My great great grandfather was Samuel Cunningham and he married Letitia Surgeoner in 1861. His father is listed as Samuel - a farmer at Grange. The witness at the wedding is Nancy Cunningham. Coincidentally I am in Western Australia.
