LISLE IN IRELAND/PENNSYLVANIA by John Lisle 19 Aug 1990 I am researching gggg-grandfather John Lisle (c.1758/Ireland-1808/Ohio). (alt spellings LYLE/LYSLE) I would like to find out birthplace/date and parents. Various published info shows was born in/emigrated from Ireland to America. Family was Scot/Irish so probably Northern Ireland. IGI for Ireland has no near fits which might be expected as probably not Church of England. Filby shows no reasonable match for an emigration. 1. Any suggestions on how to trace a non-C of E (Presbyterian) birth in Ireland in 18th cent? 2. Any other sources for emigration info? Family legend, as printed in several late-19th cent county histories is that he emigrated as a young man to America with an older brother. I pick him up in PA where he has married a Rachel IRWIN who gives birth to a Robert LISLE in Sept. 1785. I have not been able to trace a marriage record in PA. nor birthplace/date/parents for Rachel IRWIN (b. PA). nor birthplace/date for Robert. 3. Does anybody have a LISLE record which could fit the brother? 4. Does anyone have a source or a ref to source for these early PA births? 5. Does anyone have info on the marriage? (Book early PA marriages bef. 1790 does not have any matches, but states that marriages during Rev War were lost.) 6. Any sources/info on the IRWIN family? Always looking for suggestions/leads/etc. thanks for any help, John Lisle - POB 602 - Lexington, MA 02173 - 617/861-0789 LISLE - DAVIDSON - GATES - McWILLIAMS - GULLIFORD - IRWIN
