My McNeil family emigrated to NY from Larne in the 1850's. The 1st McNeil I know of was Archibald, born in 1790. His sons Charles b. 1821 and Malcolm b 1824 are the ones to have left for America. Charles married Matilda Parks in Larne in 1843. Any help expanding my knowledge of this family would be very appreciated.

No other children for Archibald & Jane either

Dear Col,
Thank you! I did not have Archibald's baptism information and when you see Charles' original, it's very easy to miss. Thank you again! Deb
Thanks for the records!
I hope it has a better approach so that the interesting things can spread. Useful information. skribbl io
