[2] William CLENDINNING. He also appears a year later in DEED 675 108 464059. His is not a common surname. There was a William CLENDINNING of Derryhaw, Co. Derry whose will was probated at Armagh in 1790.

[3] Frs McCLELLAND Francis McCLELLAND. I don’t know how he fits in.

His father’s full name is unknown and his mother is known only as “Elizabeth” SOURCE: PRONI D1968-2 1801 Will of Elizabeth McCULLAGH. He would have been an uncle of the Elizabeth McCULLAGH who was the grandmother of Sir Thomas JACKSON.
