[Bann Valley] Ancestors/Members Profiles



My connections with the Bann Valley area are through my gt-grandmother Isabella Torrens.

Isabella is one of the Drumsara Line. Several years ago it became apparent that both her paternal grandfather & grandmother were Torrens/Torrance. Through her mother's line she is descended as follows from John Torrence & his wife Jean (Jane) nee Torrance both well documented on the Torrens website

John Torrence (1717 - 1804)
m. Jean (Jane) Torrance (1728/29 - 1802)
1.  Samuel Torrance (Bef 1759/60 - Bef 1804)
    m. Mary (possibly SMITH) (1767 - ??)
    2.  Margaret Torrance (1759 - ??)
         m. Hugh Torrens (1793 - 1878)
         3. Robert Torrens (1822 - 1902)
             m. Jane Johnston (1827 - 1902)
             4. Isabella Torrens (1861 - 1934)
             m Walter Alma Taylor (1855 - 1935)

It is possible that Hugh Torrens (1793 - 1878) is also descended from John & Jean through their son Hugh (c1761 - ??) & his wife Ester but (from memory) Hugh (1793) does not appear in a visitation list with Hugh & Ester.


I am connected to John Woods via the Johnston family.
