Surnames: Delap Dunlap Dunlop Wiseman Clyde Cullybackey Ballywatermoy
I believe that she, who was married to a WISEMAN, maybe named Robert, lived in the Ballywatermoy Townland in Ahoghill civil parish in the times indicated. I believe that she was the mother to, among possibly others, two sons named ARCHIBALD and James Wiseman. Archie was born in 1813, left Antrim in 1833, left Liverpool in 1836 with his apparent then-wife Anne, and re-married Susan CLYDE in Newburgh NY USA (where his brother James had preceded him there) in 1838. Archie was my grandmother's maternal grandfather. My grandmother's middle name, as she spelled it, was "Dunlap". Since the spellings of the Dunlap, Dunlop and Delap families can refer to the same people back in the early 19th Century, for my purposes, I think they are variations of the same name. There are many Dunlops and a few Dunlaps who still live today, in Cullybackey and in Ballymena, and I seek contact with anyone who knows they have a family connection to my presumed ancestor, the above "Margaret Delap Wiseman". RSVP if you can help. Thanks.

Note: I'm also looking for Mr. Wiseman's first name.
