Hello all,

I am searching for a Robert Quinton (born c. 1817 near Ballyshonock) who married Mary Seabrook (born 1820, either in Moyacomb or Ferns).

I don't know his birth date, marriage date or his parents names, only that he came to Canada during the Famine after marrying Mary Seabrook.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please EMAIL me.

Regards,

HungarianG

  • Dear HungarianG

    If you go to rootsireland.ie there is a baptism record there for a Robert Quinton in Co. Antrim in 1817. As this is a subscription site, I am limited in what I can see. As there is only one record though, it might be a good idea to have a look. It should at the very least give Robert?s father?s name and their parish.

    There is one baptism record on that site for a Mary Seabrook but it is dated 1830 and is in Co. Dublin. Without further information though, I wouldn?t necessarily discount it (unless you know otherwise). Lastly there is a marriage record for a Mary Seabrook (perhaps Mary?s mother?) in Co. Waterford in 1798. Again as I cannot see all the detail, I cannot make any further assumptions about this connection.

    Have a look and let me know what you think.

    Best wishes
