Hi, am looking for info on my grandfathers grandparents - the young couple who were married in1828 in Killinchy Presbyterian Church. They were Hugh Hurley (a seaman in the navy) and Jane Jackson. I reciently visited the Killinchy Presbyterian Church and though the records indicate that the wedding did indeed take place in the same church that still existes today, the record of their marriage is the only record of these two individuals. Any info on the history or family of these two people before their marriage would be greatly appreciated. They emigrated to Frampton, Quebec, Canada soon after their wedding and lived to a fine old age and have left descendents oin 4 Canadian provinces and last least 2 US states.

In the meantime, have you tried looking for Hugh?s service record? For more information on such records check the UK National Archives website here:
