Milliken, Margaret -  25th October 1732- A widow, was granted a lease to run for three lives and named herself, ‘James Miliken’ aged about eleven years and ‘Joseph Miliken’ aged about seven years “two of the sons of Margaret”, as livees. She was granted 13 acres, 1 rood, 13 perches of land at a yearly rent of £3 7s 11d in Upper Ballyskeagh, which was then in the possession of the said “Margaret Miliken” but lately in the possession of John Kennedy, deceased(4).

Margaret Milliken’s original lease can be viewed at the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland in Belfast and is listed amongst the estate papers belonging to the Stewarts, better known as the Londonderry Family and which, have been used extensively in compiling this family history. Although, Margaret's lease only records the names of two of her sons, James and Joseph, it is evident she had other sons and daughters, one of whom was called Hugh. It is interesting to note that Margaret is style “Margaret Miliken otherwise Young”. In other words, her maiden surname was Young. Margaret was related to James Young, a merchant in Belfast and his wife Jane Milliken. On 16th October, 1728, James Young and his wife “Jane Young alias Milliken” sold all the townland of Fish Quarter in the parish of Inishargy in the Ards Peninsula together with the parsonage and rectoral lands to the Rev. Samuel Hutcheson of Ballygraffan for the sum of £500(5). James Young was the son of the prominent Belfast merchant, John Young, who married Mary Hutcheson, daughter of the Rev. Alexander Hutcheson(6), who are known only to have had two daughters, Jane and Abigail Young. Respectively, Jane married Gilbert McTeer and Abigail married Robert Milliken, merchants of Belfast. With two Milliken-Young marriages on record, it seems very likely that Margaret was a close relation of James Young of Belfast.

The next series of rentals are date 1740 and 1744, by which time, Robert Colville sold his entire estate to Alexander Stewart of Ballylawn, near Moville in County Donegal. Margaret Milliken’s name appears in both rentals together with “Hugh Milliken” - not to be confused with Margaret’s son Hugh - the ancestor of the Millikens of Tullynagardy. According to these rentals, Hugh was assigned a leasehold of 26 acres 2 roods 27 perches of land in Upper Ballyskeagh acquired from Robert Bell of Newtownards between 1732 and 1740. Margaret and Hugh’s leases are dated from “All Saints 1732” and were to run for three lives. We also learn that in 1732 Colville sub-divided the entire townland of Ballyskeagh between 15 tenants, a ploy designed to increase the value of his rents. It is interesting to note that in 1712, the entire townland was valued at £35 12s, half its value in 1740, when it yielded an annual income of £78. Whilst the 1740 rental lists the names of some relatively new tenants, such as, David Williamson, William Osborn, John Ritchie and John Galloway, the old families of 1712 are still represented, e.g. Hugh Kennedy, Alexander Simpson, John and Ann Simpson, Jannet Thompson, Alexander Glendinning and John McCreevy(7).

I believe Margaret Young was the widow of James Milliken first mentioned in 1712, who probably died sometime between 1725 and 1732. He was probably born in the 1680s and might have been the son of the late of James Milliken of Drumkirk. It is significant that by 1740, there is no mention of the widows Milliken or Montgomery in Drumkirk. It seems very likely that James Milliken and Margaret Young settled in Upper Ballyskeagh under John Kennedy of Ballyskeagh. Their descendants still occupy the same farm today, almost 300 years later. In that time, three dwelling houses have been built on the farm, the first reputedly dated from 1712. The location of the first farm house is depicted on the map above, which in 1790, was occupied by David Mulligan, Margaret's grandson. Sometime in the 1820s, David Milliken, son of David Mulligan, built the second farm house the foundations of which are still visible. The third, called Ballyskeagh House was built by George Milligan in the 1960s. From an early date, this branch of the family appear to have been craftsmen and publicans, a trade ever in great demand even in a Presbyterian stronghold such as Newtownards. Like most farmers of their day and time, farming was a secondary source of employment.

It is worth remarking that for a time Matthew Milliken lived in Mill Street, Newtownards, where he was a music teacher in the 1880s. His wife, Mary Jane Robinson of Ballycloughan near Saintfield, was the cousin of Sir James Porter Corry, M.P. for East Belfast, created a baronet in 1885. He was the son of Robert Corry of Ballyalton House, near Newtownards, and Jane Porter, youngest daughter of James Porter Esq. of Ballyrussll. Robert Corry was a timber merchant and founder of James P. Corry & Co., in Belfast(14). He was born at Concord Farm in the townland of Tullynagardy near Newtownards on 14th November 1800, and was one of eight children born to John Corry and Susannah White of Tullynagardy(15). This John was the son of Robert Corry and Mary Porter of Tullynagardy and the great great great grandson of John Corrie provost of Dumfries in 1638. In 1815, the aforementioned James Milliken (1796-1870) of Ballyskeagh married a daughter of John Corry of Tullynagardy, called Mary, and through this marriage, James Milliken came to possess Concord Farm, which is still occupied his descendants to this day.

The 26-acre farm acquired by Hugh Milliken from Robert Bell of Newtownards lay next to the small farm leased by Margaret Milliken in Upper Ballyskeagh. Nearly all the origin wills and testaments for Ireland were destroyed by a fire at the Four Courts Building in Dublin in 1922, including the will of Hugh Milliken. Fortunately, the original Index of wills for the Diocese of Down has survived and lists the will of “Hugh Milliken of Newtown”, which was made probate in 1754. It is a great pity Hugh’s will did not survive, as no doubt, it would have furnished more information on his immediate family and the extent of his property in the district of Newtownards. Thankfully, Hugh and his only known child, James, receive some mentioned in the Biographical Notes of the Rev. Gideon T. Ridlon. He tells us that James’s wife was called Dorothea and they had an only son also called James . I am fairly confident Hugh had property in the town of Newtownards, where his son, James, later built a house on North Street

Milliken, Hugh - 13th. April 1804 -  - b.c1772 - Acquired a farm @ Ballyrogan

In 1826, Hugh Milliken and Bernard O’Neil of Ballyrogan purchased a lease for 2 acres 3 roods 3 perches of ground at Ballyrogan National School. The rent was £1.17.6½ half yearly. By 1837, Robert Ritchey was renting the ground at the National School. Hugh also rented a further 14 acres 2 roods 23 perches of land in Ballyrogan paid at £6.11.10 half yearly. This leased expired in 1831 and was re-let to John Boyce in 1832. In 1831, Hugh Milliken and his brother, James Milliken, were party to a Deed of Release in favour of James Campbell of Charlestown, South Carolina, in the United States of North America, merchant, for the sum of £10 bequeathed to him by James Milliken of Ballyskeagh. James Campbell was the son of Hugh’s sister, Sarah Milliken, who married John Campbell of Ballyleidy. By 1840, we find Hugh again purchasing another leasehold belonging to Thomas Kelly for 11 acres 3 roods 11 perches of land in Ballybarnes with a half yearly rental charge to the earl of Londonderry amounting to £4.11.8.
