Bailie. Hugh and Sarah Jane (Gibson)

Bailie/Baillie, Hugh and Sarah Jane nee Gibson. Does anyone know this family?

Hugh died in County Down 1856. Wife Sarah Jane and children sailed for Australia in 1862 on the "Lady Milton"

Children born in Saintfield... Sarah Jane circa 1840, Samuel circa 1842, Hugh circa 1843, and David circa 1853.

Any information about this family would be most appreciated.

Elizabeth,

Do you have a townland (address) for any of the events, apart from Saintfield?

What was Hugh’s occupation?

I had a look in Pigots Directory for Saintfield in 1824 to see if there are any Baillie families listed, but none are. (Only tradesmen were listed so it doesn’t mean they weren’t there just that they were farmers or weavers and so would not be listed).
