Irwin - Feirs
AntrimCarrickfergus (Antrim)
Seeking information on William Irwin, b. 1725, d. 1772 in Carrickfergus. He married Isabella Feirs (parents unknown) who came to America in 1801 with her children. Would love to know who William's parents were and where he is buried. Also, was there a Quaker presence in Carrickfergus at that time? One of his son's was a Quaker in Pennsylvania by 1790, but another son became a Methodist minister in the 1800's so I don't know if William and Isabella were Quakers or if the one son attached thimself to the Friends after immigration.
