from Roots in Ulster Soil, p. 161:
The Borelands are mentioned in the O.S. Memiors as being one of the early families in Kilraughts, and I have found them mentioned in deeds in the 18th century. In 1761, Andrew Borland obtained a lease for 36 acres of Kilraughts townland for the natural lives of Ann, his wife, and his two sons, William, aged 25, and Matthew, aged 22. At the same date, John Borland obtained a lease for 47 acres of Kilraughts for the lives of his sons, James, aged 22, and John, aged 14. About 100 years later Thomas Borland of Kilraughts left some of his property to his brother, James Boreland of Ballynagg, Ballyrashane, and James in his will (1878) mentions various members of his family, including two of his daughters who are each to receive "a feather bed and bed cloaths to suit."
Elizabeth and John were the parents of:
Mary/abt 1769 m. James Bones
Elizabeth/abt 1774 m. Rev. James Brown
Ann/1780 - 1865
Martha/1783 - 1860
Jane/ m. William John Stavely
from Roots in Ulster Soil, p. 158:
"Martha (1783-1860) and Ann (1780-1865) ... were both unmarried and both were blind ... Ann, the blind daughter, made a very long, interesting will with codicils, in which she leaves various articles to the children and grandchildren of her sisters. She leaves Chequer Hall to her nephew, John Bones, of Augusta and his wife Mary, who was her niece. In 1866 John Bones sold Chequer Hall to Hugh McCurdy Hamilton, merchant of Ballymoney. Hugh Hamilton was a relative by marriage of both John and Mary Bones. His first wife, Jane Brown, was a sister of Mary Bones and cousin of John, and his second wife, was Mary Stavely, a cousin of both John and Mary."
