Can anyone help me find out where my G g g parents were born in Northern Ireland. I know John Taylor was born about 1799 in Co. Tyrone. He moved to England and married Elizabeth Collier. They had 4 children, 2 of whom were also born in Tyrone, Samuel Jackson Taylor born1845 and Thomas Taylor born 1839. Would love to know which part of Tyrone the Taylors originally came from.

The other side of my family also came from Northern Ireland but they were born in Co. Down. James McBlain was born about 1824 and he married Ann Alexander who was born about1825, they were married in 1848. Both were born in Co. Down but again I would love to find out which part. They had 8 children, 2 of whom were born in Down, Mary Sarah McBlain about 1850 and William J. Mcblain about1852.
I have been unable to find out anymore about which town etc. they came from and I would just love to find out which part my ancestors came from. Hope someone can help me.
