I am looking at L.D.S. 571395, 571396, 571397 and 571398 contain limited amount of material pertaining to Quakers in Lurgan and Dublin Meeting Houses, Ireland the two I am most keen.

I share a full mtDNA match with Roy B. Isabell on Family Tree DNA his oldest known ancestress Martha Wakefield born 1700 Ireland died 1794 NC married to George Hiatt.

The above films do not directly give the parents of said Martha Wakefield. It is her mother's name we want.

I can verify some of the following information found on Ancestry Tree again the family group of Joseph Wakefield and his wife Hannah Christy found on the above original records. One of their son remained member of Lurgan Meeting House, Ireland. Some of the Ancestry Tree gives his line back two or three generations into England.

We want to pick at this group of Wakefield and find a man born c1675 who removed to Ireland who could have fathered our Martha Wakefield. Or she was really born in England and since she removed from Ireland to NC perhaps family members just thought she was born in Ireland?

1. Roger Wakefield b. 1677 Yorkshire, England (confusing on actual location) d. 1731 m. Mary Haig. He was the son of Roger and Hannah (Preston) Wakefield. We are most interested in Mary's parentage daughter of Elizabeth Robinson b. 1635 Cumberland, England 1695 same location married Robert Haig. Need the names of other sons looking for one who removed to Ireland.

2. Edward Wakefield b. 1720 London, England d. 1762 m. Hulah Willett Did he removed to Ireland ?

3. Joseph Wakefield b. 1744 d. 1821 Ireland m. Hannah Christy they have family members recorded on film #571395.
Their son were remain members of Lurgan Meeting House, Ireland.

When I next view the above films will be looking for location some of these Quakers lived before Lurgan Meeting, Ireland.

Cumberland Co. England has pop up before, but I can not remember which family.

I know this can be solved if we all share all our material. The are lots of descend of above Martha Wakefield on Ancestry and I have Family Finder Matches with her various lines. But it is solving the line of Roy B. Isabell I am most keen.
