	Welcome to the boards Carlene. You don't give any date of birth for Horace but if you use the "search" facility at the top right of the screen and then click on "search all member trees" there are a few people with the name Horace Neeson in their trees. You can click on the tree owner's name and contact them direct. Kath. x

	Your post on the Genforum contains the info you should have supplied on this board. Why did you feel we could help without it ? I am looking for relations/descendants of Dr. Horace Neeson who practised Medicine in Randalstown, Antrim, Northern Ireland in the early to mid 1800s. I have been researching this man since I started on my quest to 'find my roots' over 20 years ago. Even after a trip to Randalstown last year I am still none the wiser regarding his background, siblings, parents etc. Hope someone out there can help me or I them with the information I have regarding his two wives and many children.

	Thanks Mike. None of the entries on member trees on here have 1836 as a date of birth but they could be from the same family. Kath. x

	Well thank you first of all to all the wonderful people who answered my request! I am so grateful to you all. I have put message on sites on and off for for the past 30 years and not often even ONE answer so I think this is wonderful. I do apologize for not putting in the correct information - I just didn't dream I would get any answers. Now - my Horace was born in or about 1783 - I do not have a birthplace. He was a Physician and Apothocary in Randalstown Antrim for yeas and lived in 'Neilesbrook' just out of the town. My ancestor - John Neeson was born in 1836 to his second wife Jane/t COOKE and emigrated to Australia in the 1850s. Does that give enough to go on? I have all the Horace Neeson's info that I have gathered over the years and I THINK the one born in 1812 was the Horace born to Horace Neeson's first wife Rachael LOGAN. Once again thank you for all you help. Regards Carlene
