Looking for information on a Wallace family from Ireland circa 1800`s. Andrew Wallace (b1820?) married Susanna Priesley Aug 1842. Had a son David Wallace (b1846?) Possibly was widowed and married Sarah Kerr in 1863

Did they remain in Ireland?

They were in Ireland until the late 1800`s, then moved to England

I cant see a birth for 'David' but this looks like a son to the couple
