Knockbreda Parish register gleanings. My focus was on JACKSONs and names known to have married into the family. It is by no means exhaustive, in part because the films I was working with varied in quality - as did my vision, depending on the time of day.

NOTE: I
stopped at 1860. There were many entries for DICKEYs, JOHNSTONs
and DONALDSONs which are also likely of interest. This chart also merges two of
my research attempts, and where there were differences in what I recorded, I
included both.

Marriages –The
first entries on the CHurch of Ireland microfilm were challenging to read. Since my eyes were
starting to get fatigued, I stopped. My hope had been that the originals might
be available at the Representative Church Body in Dublin, but they are not. I did
notice that there seemed to be a number of links to people from Lisburn. |
