The above were married in Lower Cumber  Co  Derry around 1814. They left Ireland for Scotland  with some of their younger children in the 1840’s. They were in the 1830’s census at which time they had about seven children most of whom remained in Ireland. Any info regarding children, siblings, parents would be greatly appreciated.
