    It may be observed that no double names are found with the exception of a few in the beginning of the 19th Century.
    When we add the names of the children to those of the parents in the two preceding lists and examine the result it shows materially the simplicity displayed as to the names adopted by the Presbyterians of the Coraneary Cong. for a period of 46 years - and most likely for as long before. They brought their Christian names with them and they held to them. T.H.
