Hi there,
Thanks for your reply. I am at a loss with the people you have stated and the dates are almost 80 years out.
My G-G-G-Grandparents came from Drumbeg Co Antrim. James would have been born around 1770 Give or take 10 years.
Andrew my G-G-Grandfather born 1795 left Ireland 1838 bound for Australia with his wife and family. They were both Presbyterian James and Andrew were Masons and I received some information on them from Irish Lodge and Australian Lodge. I cannot find any siblings for Andrew or info on his wife Ann Pitt. Are you able to give me any other information on your ancestors that I can follow up on to check if there is some family relationship.
Have a great day and thanks again for your contact.
Denis

Hi there
I am at a loss with Irish relatives. I have been unable to trace them past my G-G-G-Grandfather a James Gribben. Possibly died early 1800s. My G-G-Grandfather married a lady Ann Pitt and emigrated to Australia. I have a lot of information on him, though none on any siblings and very little on James and none on Catherine. Sorry I am unable to answer your query
Regards
Denis
