James Kane
18?? - 1???
 
James was Calum's and Jamie's great great great great great grandfather.
 
Little is known about James. In his daughter Christina's wedding register entry in Belfast 1873, James was noted as being a watchman. He in fact appears to have been a watchman for at least a decade, being recorded as such at 142 Boundary Street in the 1863-64 Belfast and Ulster Street Directory, and again at 5 Cargill Street in 1870.  
 
In 1860, there were two different gentlemen called James Kane living at 50 and 71 Boundary Street respectively, so it is probably safe to assume that one of these was our James as well. Before that, James life is still shoruded in mystery.

Christina Kane
1846 - 1???
 
Christina was Calum's and Jamie's great great great great grandmother.
 
At the age of 27, Christina married 25 year old widower Arthur Taylor, son of Arthur Taylor, the ceremony taking place on August 2nd 1873, in a service performed by the the Reverend J. Spence at St. Anne's Church of Ireland, in the parish of Shankill. Both Christina and Arthur were described as residing in Belfast, with Arthur listed as a labourer. The witnesses to the wedding were a C. Kane and a J. Rogers.
 
After their wedding, it would appear that Christina and Arthur relocated to the town of Antrim, where they had at least two daughters, Matilda and Isabella.
 
It is not yet known when Christina died.
