Downpatrick, Parish of Saul, Co Down, Northern Ireland. (This information came from his marriage certificate and states his age as 28 yrs which would indicate he was born around 1837. His age at death is shown as 70 yrs which would indicate his birth as being around 1834 but this is only as accurate as the information provided by the informant and I feel James himself would be more likely to have had the correct age put on the marriage certificate.) |
