Alice Mooney & James Magee (Scotland & Belfast Con

So, I have a mystery in my family tree. (Surprise surprise!)

James Magee was married to Alice Mooney, they lived in Belfast in the mid 1800's- early 1900's and had 5 or 6 children that I know of.
Their childrens names were Elizabeth, Robert, James, Jane (also known as Jean or Jinnie), Alice (though not sure) and Annie.

Their first child, Jane was born in Belfast, the next two (Elizabeth and Robert) were born in scotland, then the children born thereafter were all born in Belfast.

Very unusual indeed.I'm guessing there might have been a wife who died, prior to his marriage to Alice. If anyone recognises this story, please drop me a line, I'm up against a brick wall! xo
