Hello Linde,Unfortunately I don't. I am not sure if these Kilrea McMichaels are my line. The birth year of their son James would tally. James (my great grandfather) became a Blacksmith at Carnal Ridge. He married Mary Drain (Adrain) from Glenmanus and the marriage certificate lists his father as James (Coachman) and her father as William (Farmer). James and Mary had a child called Georgina (born in Portrush). The Kilrea McMichaels also had a daughter called Georgina. Which may simply be coincidental. Georgina McMichael also appears in 1891 Census for England as a domestic servant in Kensington palace. There it states that she was born in Northern Ireland. It could be the same Georgina.
The baptism of James in 1852 is recorded in the Presbyterian records for Kilrea as listed on the Bann Valley Kilrea Church records. I am ever hopeful that I might establish the parents of James McMichael the Blacksmith for certain.
