Finlays in Killinchy
I am researching the Finlay name.In particular, my grandfather Adam Finlay who came to the US in 1906 from Killinchy with his brother David.Adam was 20 and David was 19 in 1906.They had a brother James who came in 1906 to US when he was 23.Adam's other brothers and sisters that I know of were as follows:David, James, William, Eleanor (Ellen), Agnes, Annie, and Robert.All moved to Pittsburgh, PA area in the early 1900's.His youngest brother, Robert came when he was 15 in 1915.I am assuming that at that point his parents died and all other family members lived in Pittsburgh, PA.His brother james returned to the US with Robert.I do not know Adam's parents names but since the Ellis Island records all list Killinchy as the town where all other family members were from, I am assuming that the parents lived there too.William Finlay was living in Belfast in 1948 when my grandfather died according to his death notice.Agnes married a man named Huston, Annie married a man named Robert Wilson.my grandfather married a woman named Minnie Greer from Ballynahinch.They married in Pittsburgh. Any information about the Finlays would be appreciated.
