Agnew ancestor
I am looking for information on John Agnew and his wife Mary Ann. John was born in 1800 in the parish of Derrynoose. I do not know his parents names nor the names of his wife's parents. I do not know their marriage date. They had 4 children born in Derrynoose: Hugh born about 1823, Robert born in 1825, Lucinda born about 1830 and Isabella born about 1832. The family emigrated in 1833 and settled in Albany New York. I see from the list of Tithe Applotments that a John Agnew lived in Roan (Rowan) in 1825. The 1796 Flax Growers List names Alexander, James and Thomas Agnew in Derrynoose. I suspect that one of these may be John Agnew's father. The Freeholders List names Robert, Thomas and Hugh Agnew in both 1832 and 1839, all living in Lisdrombrocas. I feel that these families must be connected to my John Agnew. Also, in Albany New York, John and Mary Ann belonged to the Episcopal church and had 2 children (Margaret and Mary Jane) born in Albany baptised in that church. Any information on John Agnew, his wife and his parents would be gratefully received.
