  • Hi Susanne

    There is a marriage record of James & Mary in Antrim 1865 on www.rootsireland.ie/ 

    http://ifhf.rootsireland.ie/quis.php?page=1&confirmPageView=Y

    It costs to view the full record but it will have the parish and HOPEFULLY the parents' names.

  • After more research, I am now looking for James McNally and Rebecca Wallace. Both emigrated from Ireland and I can find them in Ontario records but nothing on where in Ireland he came from. She was born about 1826 and James about 1819. All of their children were born in Canada.

  • hi Susanne

    I searched for a marriage record of James & Rebecca on rootslreland without success.

    I then searched for birth records and got lots for James but only 4 for Rebecca one of which was in Sligo.

    There was also 1 for James from Sligo so PERHAPS that is where they were from.

    However I notice that Rebecca was C of I but James R C so maybe these are not yours.

    I couldn't find a tree on ancestry with them but there is. an Ontario marriage record of James McNally to Rebecca Johnston 5 June 1906 York. James born in Ire  abt 1865 parents Jno McNally & Rose Sullivan.

    Rebecca also born in Ire abt 1877 parents William Johnston & Matilda Anderson
