The Wachob, Wachub, Wauchob, Wachope, Wauchope family from Tyrone county

Hi there. I don't know if this post is still active but I just came across this while researching my ancestry. My great, great grandma is Jessie Neilson (married to be McDonald). She was born to Sarah Wauchope (one of Samual and Sarah's daughters). If this gets to you, please contact me at nmcfarlane131@gmail.com. Thank you 

Hi

Yes this is the same family, it isn't my family. I created a family tree for a close friend, her great grandparents were James Cross Neilson and Sarah Wauchope. Her grandfather was Jessie Neilson's brother Archibald Witherspoon Neilson. 

I can ask her if she would like to have your contact information. 

Spoke with my friend, she is interested, I will give her your contact information

Hi I am fairly late on this post but I have some information on Sarah Brown and Samuel Wauchope. Firstly I think Skirts is one of those older terms for Castlederg which has fallen out of use. My Great-Great Grandmother was Sarah's older sister Isabella. From what we know Sarah Brown was born on August 10th 1927 that is going by the 1901 Canadian census. She married Samuel Wauchope on 7th December 1846, depending on his various census entries he was born between 1818 and 1820. I think his father's name was Mathew Wachob who died in 1823 while Samuel was very young. I think most of that book you were talking about is available online.  http://www.wauchopes.com/gladys_wauchope.htm

Thanks I will pass this information onto the family

Hi Mick, would you be interested in getting in contact with my friend, I will ask her also. 

Monica 

Hi Monica that would be good, I only have some limited information on Sarah and her descendants from Canada but I understand she had a big family like her sister Isabella who married a Sproule and also had a big family. I am also trying to get information on their father David Brown. Not sure of the procedure in giving contact information on this site but I am definitely interested.

Regards

Mick

I'm not sure if there is any completely secure way to give contact info, a reply before yours gave an email in the body of his message. Alternatively my friend could sign up on this website and you could exchange info here. I can ask her.

Also your mention of your Isabella marrying a Sproule, my husband is a descendant of the Sproules from I think county Tyrone, they came to Canada in the early 1800's

Okay, I will let her now, her name is Carol Ashford

Sorry to be late to this discussion.
My 4xggf was Sanuel Wauchop of Goland, Ardstraw.  His daughter, Loveagh, (my 3xggm) was born c1791.  This is a transcript of Samuel's will:

In the Name of God Amen

That is to say first I leave to my Daughter Mary thirty pounds to be paid by my son Mathew Wauchop in the space of two years or if she marries sooner liable to be paid at the end of twelve months I leave to my Daughter Martha thirty pounds Sterl. to be paid at the end of three years from the present Date or if sooner m. to be paid at the time of marriage.

Hi

I belive you contacted me through WT, my reply to you bounced back

M 

What is WT?

WikiTree: This is the message I received, April 6, 2021

'My 4xggf was Samuel Wauchop of Goland, Ardstraw, Tyrone.  I do not know his birth and death dates, but his daughter Loveagh (my 3xggm) was born in 1791.   In Samuel's will he lists his son's name as Mathew. I am speculating that Samuel's son Mathew is the father of Samuel who married Sarah Brown''.

It came from someone with the same initials as you and a gmail address.It's almost identical to the first line in your original post

If it wasn't you perhaps you should check your rmail security. 

I'm not related to the Wauchop's. My originnal question was asked on behalf of a friend who is a descendant

OK thanks,

I just thought the descendants of Samuel Wauchope might be interested in the will of his grandfather, Samuel.  This is a trascript of the will from family records and is not (to my knowledge) available on any of the online repositories.

There are marriage records that show the family living in Goland in the mid 1800s:
