In Response To: Re: McMeekan family (Margaret Johnston)

My great great grandfather was Robert McMeekan, who died in Church St. Newtownards 2nd Aug. 1902 aged 89.His wife was Jane. His daughter Margaret was my great grandmother, but I only found him in the 1901 census. He had a son Charles. There was a James living in Church St. who may have been a relative, perhaps another son.
I have not been able to see the early records for the First Presbyterian Church, Newtownards, so I have not been able to trace the family further.
Charles married Margaret Armstrong about 1876.
Margaret Armstrong's father George was nephew of Thomas Strean, who built Strean Presbyterian Church in Newtownards, because he did not like the new minister in the First Presbyterian.
Another Charles was my friend Elizabeth Anderson's grandfather. His daughter Margaret was born 1906.
Still hoping to find granddaughter of Charles & Margaret (Armstrong) McMeekan. I lost touch with her some years ago. She could tell me the history of the family. She used to visit, but I was working too hard in those days to do research.
