James Camblin was my 3rd great-grandfather. There is no information about who his parents were but he was born in about 1815 according to his age on the 1901 census and his death.

His marriage to Sarah McCallan took place at the Tandragee Presbyterian Church on 6 August 1842 - he was from the townland of Cornascribe. The baptisms of their children took place at the same church and by the time of the baptisms in 1856 they had moved to the townland of Derryhale.
