My 3rd GGF - Andrew McFarland was born about 1781 in Ireland. Died abt 1856 in Alma, Albert, New Brunswick, Canada. Immigration records show they came to New Brunswick from Tyrone in 1833.
Andrew had at least three sons - King (1811), Andrew (1815) and William (1818-my line). I've seen that King and Andrew may have been born in County Derry.
He may have a sister Ann, who married James Black and lived in New Brunswick
My family is Presbyterian in Canada and the US (Ohio then Wisconsin), so guessing they were Presbyterian in Ireland.
I haven't been able to find any records that show his parents or anything linking him to a county or parish or townland in Ireland, so looking for proof of parents, townland, etc before traveling to Northern Ireland this summer.
We have the name Armour a lot in the line, so the marriage to Mary Armour and brother named Armour has my gut thinking it's the right connection, but looking for proof.
Andrew's brother King had a son Armour, born in Omagh according to his obituary in New Brunswick, Canada.
