    There is a birth registration for a Mary Moorhead but in Killinchy county Down about 14 miles from Newtownards, as the mothers name is not given I am not 100% sure if this is the correct Mary but dates , names and area are a match.

    Name: Mary Moorhead
    Gender: Female
    Baptism Date: 6 Jun 1828
    Baptism Place: Presbyterian, Killinchy, Down, Ireland
    Father's Name: John Moorhead
