Thanks, Viv.
Joyce Oates has your William Taggart as bapt 8 Aug.1708 Malew, with father Jo [John] Taggart - is this correct?
And married Ellinor BRIDSON 27 March 1733. She was bapt 10 Sept. 1710 Malew d/o John (Malew bur reg: Elinor Taggart als Bridson bur 25 Mar 1795).
JO listed 8 children with Martha the youngest and the eldest as Captain Matthias TAGGART of Castletown, Malew, bapt 24 Feb 1733/1734, d.1786, and "mentioned in 1756 addendum of will of gma in law Mgt Curghey als Lowcay".
She records Matthias's sister Margaret TAGGART as being of Ballakew, Malew (married Daniel BRIDSON 1736 Santon), and brother William Taggart b.1747 as being of Gibdale Malew and married Catharine WATTERSON.
Did Martha marry Thomas Cain 1776 Malew? [IGI member submission.]
