McCorriston
Lennon Wylie you kindly did some searching on this chap back in March. If you
remember he was the Jeweller in My Ladys Road who moved from 35 to 170 and
married a relative Sarah M J Scott. Well it turns out that he was married
before and was a "widower" in 1915. He married 1st wife in June
1896 and gave his address as 20 Gloucester Street. I looked at the 1901 SD
in PRONI and it is shown vacant, I know he was at 35 My Ladys Road then and
have him in the 1901 Census. In 1880 SD Gloucester St is a lodging house
(Carlisle). His job at the time of the marriage was "baker". Would
you please see when Gloucester Street changed from lodgings to vacant if you
have the books between 1880 and 1901.
His 1st wife Mary Anne McQuade gave her address as 51 Chichester St which
also turns out to be a boarding house in 1880 and the Chester Restaurant in
1901....her father is given as George McQuade - tailor but no sign of him in
1880/1901, would you please have a wee look around to see if he's
about.
very many thanks
Peter

Hi Pete, You're going great guns with your lot
I don't have any directories between 1880 and 1907, sorry, May has 1901
but you've seen that already at Proni and if George McQuade is about 1907 or
prior you'll find him on my site using the Google onsite search box., sorry
I can't really help with this one Pete.

Great stuff Anthony,(and Lennon/Wylie) this gives me another bit for the
"jigsaw". It started as a 100 piecer but is going to end up
somthing a lot bigger!
I am thinking could the lodgings be above the Tailors shop? and he lives at
Erin St and the Daughter above the business?

Hiya Lennon/Wylie,Just a note to say that King`s county and Queen`s county have been
known as Laois and offaly since the Republic of Ireland started!
Also Londonderry is the city title but County Derry.

Hi Cos
Not to be picky here but... as the Slaters was written in 1846 they would
still have been known and referred to as King's and Queen's Counties.
Lennon/Wylie... perhaps in the list you gave you could and Laios and Offaly in
brackets.
and... officially... it is still Co. Londonderry...

Its a good idea to bracket the modern names of the counties.As regards

Would anyone out there have a photo of a Royal Irish Fusilier. Not wishing
to narrow the field too much, the soldier should have a moustache. A group
photo would also be good so that I could lift the head and shoulders out
from the group. The identity is not important, in fact I would prefer no
identity.

slight problem, my camera is poo, well I'm poo at using it, Eddie is going
to see if he can help me sort it out, it won't be the directories though, at
least not the Belfast ones, hopefully if we (Eddie) that is, can sort out my
camera, it will be the info at the front of the Derry and Antrim Year Books,
its great, there is a section for each month, Jan thru Dec, in each book and
it gives like a 'this date in history' which includes local details, I put a
few in here
http://lookups.eamped.com/topic112.html
but the print is small and I'm not that good with the camera, I'm sure

Killinchy
I was in an old graveyard today and it was a disgrace, a crypt was
accessible, not by humans though and skulls were clearly visible through the
bars and bones outside, my son was horrified that we treat our dead so
disrespectfully, a handful of strong men could clean that graveyard in a
couple of days, head stones had fallen, facedown and couldn't be read, some
had fallen and were smashed, others leaning so badly you were afraid to walk
past them and cause a draught, graves were smashed and overgrown and slate
headstones crumbling and flaking and it was small, very small, hardly bigger
than my garden, not a huge task, is there no authority that can do anything?
I know some of the bigger graveyards are a mess also but are huge, this one
is small and some of the dates go back to early 1700's, what a shame

That's very sad Lennon/Wylie. Perhaps the local council could tell you who is
responsible for maintenance, if anyone. I guess in many cases it is left to
volunteers to maintain graveyards.
Lennon/Wylie
Posted: Fri Apr 13, 2007 9:54 pm Post subject:
we went first to a small graveyard in Killyleagh, no church near it, a long
sloping hill, with a small parking area, a tap for water, spare plastic
containers for flowers, a skip, grass beautifully cut and when you walked to
the very top it was a beautiful view for anyone there visiting or tending a
grave, what a contrast.
One grave my son and I both stood over for a wee while was for a Katie,
our wee daughter and it had teddy bears and lots of flowers 2003, very sad.

A lot of the smaller graveyards are left to go to rack and ruin because
there is no one to look after them... many councils do not accept
responsibility. I remember contacting a council several years ago to ask
about a graveyard in which I knew ancestors were buried and which was total
overgrown... they new nothing about the graveyard, who was buried there or
took responsibility for its upkeep... it was left to locals etc getting
together every so often to clear it out... although the last time seems to
have been many years ago. If its attached to a Church it may be looked after
or one set up by a council... but others go by the by...
Lennon/Wylie
Posted: Sat Apr 14, 2007 10:08 am Post subject:
there's a beautiful wee church attached but according to other people we
spoke to it has no minister at the moment, and cleaning up would be a
delicate operation as there's alot of information in the bits and pieces
lying around the ground, would take brains, brawn and common sense to sort
it all out...

McConville
I also have the details for another McConville, Joseph, who may also be a
Great Uncle of mine as I was told my Joseph also died in WWI. I'd be happy
to give you that record too, although I could not state 100% that he is one
and the same. One thing I can say is that the place he was born, Shankill,
is where my Joseph's Grandmother, Susan McMorran (nee Pepper) originally
came from, so there is a good possibility that it's him. Please let me know
if you want me to send the record.

Ancestry.com is a pain like that but you can set up a free account which
will give you basic access to Ancestry.com and associated sites... it has
proven useful in the past when they've had days were access was free to
certain parts of their info.

Been there, done that Eddie. Ancestry.com is up there with UHF and
Scotland's people. Their meanings of free and mine are a wee bit differet.
Nuff said.

Hi 'eastender'
Thank u firstly for the interest shown in my family tree, i appreciate it
and then please accept my apologies - i am not very 'clued up' on the
workings of the internet but am learning. I would like to add that after
reading your posting, i have to agree with u in that ancestry is rather a
pain in the...ummm, arm and most certainly is not free (except the 14 day
trial) but hey, when u're just starting out, u get kinda 'suckered'. Anyway,
enough rambling - wanted to let u know that im currently designing a site
(if anyone has webdesign instructions...4 blondes - please don't hold back )
to display my tree and will let you know the minute its ready

No problems coogirlc.
I look forward to seeing the finished product.
Maybe eddiec has some tips about web page design programs

What you want is a genealogy program rather than a web design program. These
progams allow you to collate and store all your info.
Most of the half decent ones will come with an option to export the data
as a set of html files which you can put on a website or you can use
something like GenesReunited which allows you to build a site directly on
the web.
Theres a thread in the Family Trees board giving some suggestions
(including one from eastender )
Have a look at my own genealogy site(i really have to get round to doing
some work on it) click the link to trees in the menu on the left. These
trees were created by my genealogy program and are an example of what you
can do.

As far as I was aware FTM had an online site where you could upload your
tree so I checked their web site
Heres what they say:
<snip> or through a free Internet homepage.
Submitting your family tree to MyFamily.com’s collection of user-submitted
trees lets you share your discoveries with the entire genealogy community.

Hi Alison, I will keep you in mind, I'm not getting an awful lot done at the
moment with my mum but I think there's a light at the end of the tunnel so
hopefully I'll get a chance to sort myself and the site out a bit soon.
The streets directories I have to do myself as I do them into a template
from jpg and no matter what programme I try to transfer them from, the
layout always gets messed up and it takes nearly as much time to correct
that and proof read the whole thing as it does to just type it myself but I
have other things here waiting to be done and I need to get my ass into gear
and get them sorted.
Thank you for the offer, I'll be in touch asap.

They've changed the site a bit and updated the look since my last visit but
if I recall they only set out to do the West Belfast info...
It would be nice if they got the funding to expand into the rest...
One caveat though... some of the info I found was slightly out... houses
had been mixed up... I did email them at the time and just checked and see
it is still wrong

Got a reply, very nice man
Yes, indeed, we are expanding outwards all the time (but it is
slow digitising and then checking each census document), and we
will upload new materials at irregular intervals.

OK... there are two main types of PC those running Windoze and those running
Mac OS. Programs written for Windows don't run under Mac OSX and vice versa.
(although with the latest Apple computers you can run both using
virtualisation software)
Here's a link to Cyndis List giving a good overview of many programs

At a meeting of the Corporation, on the 1st February, 1877, an
influential deputation waited on the Council to request
permission to have a portrait of Sir Robert Boag placed in the Council Hall.
The permission was readily granted and
subsequently a life size painting of Sir Robert - a splendid work of art
from the atelier of Mr. (now Sir T. A.) Jones, President
of the Royal Hibernian Academy - was suspended to the immediate left of the
main entrance. It is an admirable likeness,
portraying Sir Robert with remarkable fidelity and accuracy in form and
features. The figure is represented in court dress,
the left hand bearing a glove and resting on his side, while the right
carries his hat. The posing is natural and graceful, and
pervaded by the ease and freedom in the lining which characterise all Sir T.
A. Jones' works. The portrait is enclosed in a
massive gilt frame, at the base of which appears the following inscription
:-
"Alderman Sir Robert Boag, Knt.,
Mayor, 1876.
Presented to the Municipality by his fellow citizens."
Painted by T. A. Jones, P.R.H.A.

Posted: Sun Apr 01, 2007 4:45 pm Post subject: McGifford
surname in Belfast and areas
Hi ,
My name that I am having a difficult time in locating stems from the lower
Ards and around the Strang Lough upwards to Killyleag including Portaferry
and Downpatrick and Saul.
The man was James McGiffert and his wife was Mary Carson. He was born around
the 1810 timeframe and was classed as a ploughman on some estate. He had
eleven children according to an obituary of one of his sons [ William ] from
Ohio. My line stems from another son Arthur who married one Margaret O,Hara
from Belfast [ Shankill ] area.
There must be records of deaths someplace. His death seems to have occured
around 1860 give or take several years.
This reasoning is from a certificate from another of his sons who immigrated
to Scotland and on his death certificate it shows his father as being
diseased in 1863. But an earlier certificate showed him as being an estate
worker.
Not sure if this means anything.
The question...
How would I go about locating the death of this James McGiffert and or Mary
Carson.
Or his marriage for that matter. Something to help in proving the name of
his father.
Anything will probably help as I have nothing to go on.
Thanks.

Hi Redwillow
Welcome to the forum. Hopefully someone will be able to give you a lead.
For my tuppence worth...
You probably already know that official registration for births began in
1864, before that there are few places you could find the information.
If he was a regular churchgoer it is possible (but not always so) that
his burial was recorded in the church records.
The other is if he was lucky enough to have a notice or mention in the
local paper - unfortunately here I can find no local paper for the area for
that time frame (all started after the early 1870s)
Maybe Lennon/Wylie can find a reference in the Directories.
You don't mention the death date for his wife...

Hello Redwillow
have you had a look at the www.caora.net site ?
there's a link on there to the Ros Davies site (youll find it under the
heading of DOWN on the top bar i can't post the actual link at the moment as
my key board is playing up and i cant get the squiggley line to work )
Anyhow on there is a surnames list and McGifford/Mcgiffert figures quite a
bit so prehaps worth a look if you haven't already.
Kind regards
Meg

checked Newtownards, Killyleagh
Portaferry only thing close is
Milliners & Dressmakers
McGifford, Isabella, Portaferry (she's also listed in the 1861 online)
sorry nothing else even remotely close, I used the Ulster Covenant as a
guide to that area and checked any that were listed in the Index.

Posted: Mon Apr 02, 2007 1:56 pm Post subject: McGifford and
McGiffert
Thanks all for the info ,
I guess I should have notified as to what I have already done in regards to
my research.
Yes , I have been to CAORA and Davis as well as almost every site that
mentions Ireland. Like looking for the small stone in a feild of small
stones. They are all there but which one is the right one.
I have a copy of all deaths , marriages and births of every McGiffert /
McGifford and their variables from the Mormon Library film records which
shows all from 1863 onward to 1920 something. I have a group of gravestones
which mention several McGifford families but does not mention the James or
Mary Carson I need. Unfortunately I do not know the exact dates of their
demise , only that James was gone by 1863. Not much to go on. I am wondering
if he may have gone to scotland to be with the several of the family who
emmigrated there. But Scotlands people do not have any record of this.
But then if he did go their in his old age and was not ever shown on any
record he would still be listed as a death. Or would he. Was there private
burials on private land that was secret from the government eyes?
Not likely but I am grasping at straws.
It is my assumption that he was an employee on either the Montgomery estate
or a close proximity. Methinks maybe there could be records from these
estate s in PRONI. Could this be?
The surname shows up on Valuation records going back to the mid 1700 era in
this area and not elseware.
There is an Australian site that also mentions the McGifford family but as
usual they only mention ''from Ireland" in the place of birth.
There was a John McGiffert from Killyleagh who was deeply involved in
McGiffert genealogy...? He died three years ago willing his papers to PRONI
The McGiffert Letters , A group of thirty letters written to the McGiffert
family who owned a plantation in Alabama. I have a copy of these and they in
themselves do show a couple of the families and relatives. The only problem
with these letters is that they do not show who is who..just cousin this and
cousin that. Portaferry is where this family originated and the milner was
the sister to the James who went to America in 1819, There were two other
sisters who opened a hotel for women in Belfast.
Dr McGiffert is listed as an uncle. All I need to do is find ..WALDO..
If anyone from the KILLYLEAGH area ever gets to the main library I wonder
if you could inquire for me as to the whereabouts of the main family
genealogy that this 'John McGiffert ' had so extensivly done. It appears
that he did not deposit this aspect of his papers into PRONI.
I have written to the library but did not ever receive a reply.
This could answer me questions. Maybe the road has indeed reached an end
with no further truth or proof.
Thanks again all for your intrest

A check of PRONI shows quite a number of "Montgomery papers" but
not much detail. A phone call should clarify if they might have what you are
looking for.
As you seem to have covered most of the bases already, have you tried
contacting the local paper and seeing if they will put in a notice in asking
if anyone has any information on John McGiffert and/or his history files.
Maybe if he was married there might be an in-law or two.

I emailed Killyleagh today, if they don't answer by Wednesday morning, I'll
ring them and kick some hiney, only kidding but I'd like to know why they
plaster their email all over the internet and don't answer it, even if they
answer mine, there's no excuse for not answering your letter.
Hopefully they'll get back to me and then we can see what they have, I
fancy a wee toot to Killyleagh, no ferry though, uhuh no way, me and water,
in a bath only with bubbles...will let you know what happens.

Hi all ,
Still winter here in Canada this morning. 50 mph winds blowing from the n w
but nothing like the three feet of snow just south of us. A nice day to go
over the genealogy I have and don,t have.
Did not have much luck with Killyleagh and Lennon/Wylie taking the time to go for
me. A great horaaaaaw to her for being so kind.
But then,,,,if this great hobby was to easy nobody would be at it. Everyone
would be done , so I guess a few dire moments are worth it as it gives one
the attitude to do further searching through history , publications of news
events and lets one know and understand the lifestyles portrayed by such
events and why these people did as they did.
Thanks again Lennon/Wylie and everyone else who showed an intrest in my search.

I don't know who was more disappointed
The info at Killyleagh is fine if you're looking for marriages and
baptisms as its photocopies of church entries but for what we were hoping to
find, personal research or family trees by John McGiffert, unfortunately
there were none, still, the only way is up (famous words by Yazz)
I think Killyleagh should have those records online....they would be
invaluable to many people.

Killyleagh
Hi all ,
Now there is a brilliant idea. As I was led to beleive there is a family
historical group centered at the Killyleagh Library. Maybe all one needs to
do is put a bee in their bonnets and see what happens. Those records would
indeed be invaluable to others seeking ancesters within that area.
Some year we are going to huff and puff and finally save enough for an Irish
vacation. Not sure when though. In the realm of life genealogy is far from
number one in the need to do bracket. But one can hope.
We have on word the on line history of Ireland with no punches witheld
concerning what England was about and the deliberate hardship they placed
upon the people of Ireland/Ulster in the name of profit for arrogant and
greedy landlords. Really good read. It is under ' Gutenberg e books ' if
anyone be interested. Free to download at will.
We are getting well informed on the plantation period as well and are still
searching for the surname McGifford which is a branch of the Giffard family
who came to England with William the Conqueror and fought in the battle of
hastings and as a reward ware granted confiscated lands in various areas of
Britian. The Low Land Scots area was one of the areas though the name is not
that prominent and seems to have died out in the sixteen hundreds with the
last being two daughters . So it is baffling to say the least when t it is
stated in the plantation of Ulster within Down , one of the names is
McGifford , from Scotland [ low land scots ]
Methinks that somewhere there is a Baillie connection . Ringdufferin. This
seems to be the area where the Baillies did get land and began the draining
of the bogs of Ards. There is also a reference to a showing at a marriage of
Ringdufferin by one Ballie as well as one McGiffert.
It is just figuring the connection..
This is going to be quite an accomplishment ... me with my two fingered
typing methods and no speed reading skill. But then the boys are all grown
up and we just replaced the rugs with laminated flooring so the housework is
at a minimal. My hubby does all the cooking and seems to love it with all
his new recipes from different areas of the world. Loves his many virisions
of Chicken or chops.
He keeps wanting to show off his lamb recipes as he grew up on a large sheep
farm in Northern Alberta where his father immigrated to in 1928.
But I have never had the taste for mutton. Maybe at sometime later.
Anyways I have learned more in this last three years of genealogy than my
entire schooling ever taught me.
The cruelities that one group of people can place upon another in the name
of family and stature and not ever have a smidgin of guilt. Makes one wish
they could have a machine gun and a time machine. Things would be different
then.. eh?
To me I assume that these McGiffords did indeed originate somewhere in the
southern Ards around Ballyphilip and spread around the Lough.
I have traced one from Carnreaggh , Hillsborough area back to 176o and
onwards to one John in Toronto. I have traced a Thomas McGiffert of Antrim
all the way through Scotland and on to Winnipeg Manitoba where she is a MPP
represenative for the last ten years or more...Dianne McGifford.
I have traced Arthur Cushman McGiffert from Ireland , Down to Ashtaboola
Ohio where he was a Minister.
I have traced one James McGiffert from County Down , portaferry to Green Co
Alabama where he had extensive holdings until the civil war broke the
plantation and the slaves were all freed.
These akll originate in County Down Ireland and seem to get lost around
the early 1800 or if one follows any grave inscription and trace the births
then the mid 1700. I have nias yet found a McGifford into 1600. This leads
me to beleive they did not come until very close to 1700. But then I could
be wrong. I was once before...
I better close this disclosure but not the search.
Thanks again all for any help . Keep your eyes out for anything that may
help.

don't worry red, our springs tend to come early and we've been known to have
snow in May so we ain't out of the woods yet.
Its the NIFHS that have a branch meeting in the library first Monday (I
think) of every month, Northern Ireland Family Historical Society of which
John McGiffert was a founder member, they might be the ones to approach
about getting the church records online, something to keep in mind for the
not too distant future, maybe we can get Eddie and his cam on the job
sometime if they permit it, we'll see, won't be immediate though, we both
have projects lined up and waiting...
I will keep my eyes peeled

its the bestest thing ever but I'm sorely disappointed in the quality, so
much info is missing by the poor scanning
I'll lend them my book scanner, if they ask nicely
I started the 1944 and 1952 and have already put a few pages of the 1944
online but I'm trying tp get the right balance between size and quality, I
did this a few months back but it's on hold now until I get my Mum organised
anyway, this is where they will be eventually
http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/1944STREETS1.htm
the images there now are too blurry and I'm rescanning those pages but it
will have to wait another wee while

Looking through the Directories though you need to be very very specific in
your search criteria... as you know not everybody... well... you know what I
mean Smile
One street search I did gave me 692 returns... i gave up at the 40th
image listing from the Alpha section - some of which didn't actually have
the name of the Street!!... I did a quick selection of other links and only
got Alpha section.
Narrowing the search using the options to ask for only pages from the
Street section and exact words brought the number down to 218 but still
listed many images from the alpha section but now I was able to see the
Street listings.
Also important to point out... when you are viewing an image from a
search... if you look to the right below the arrows listing the number of
the image in the search you will find two other arrows unnamed that will
allow you to view the next image in that directory allowing you to continue
looking through that particular directory if you wanted (although that would
be a very tedious way to do it Smile but does allow you to see the next page
if the street runs over.
Do you know if they are going to do the Belfast Directories that are
missing from their list? And... are they going to do after 1900?

What date are the street directories available to online? And also what date
is the latest census? Where can the 1901/1911 census be viewed online (other
than belfastfamilyhistory.com)?
Thanks

Proni have put up to 1900 online, see first post but I have heard they have
sent many for rescanning, fingers crossed that's not just a rumour, now we
need to get them together with GoogleBooks so they can see a real search
work.
Google Books search shows highlighted your search results on each page, no
need to read the whole thing to find the one word you are looking for like
the Proni search.
the other question Eddie will answer, I'm useless

Unfortunately the 1901/1911 census (censii?) are NOT available online YET!
An agreement to digitalize the 1901 and 1911 census for Ireland was
signed in December 2005 between the National Archives of Ireland and Library
and Archives Canada. The project has been divided into sections, the first
being County Dublin for 1911 which it is hoped will be available online by
the end of 2007. It is hoped that the entire project will be completed over
the next 3 years.
The digitization of the microfilms is nearly all completed, and work is
ongoing to link the images to the appropriate geographic descriptions. In
addition to the census research tool, the National Archives of Ireland is
also creating a variety of essays with complimentary digitized photographs
to better contextualize Dublin and Ireland as a whole in 1911 and 1901.
There are 1209 reels of microfilm for 1901 and 3281 for 1911 - films of the
actual householders returns. The backs of the householder returns were
filmed for 1911 but not for 1901. The project is commencing with 1911 as the
quality of the films is better in 19911 than 1901.

Posted: Fri Mar 09, 2007 6:23 pm Post subject: Jane Frances
FETHERSTONHAUGH
Lennon/Wylie, its me AGAIN , The last Will left by Aunt Lallie (SMJ McCorriston/nee
Scott) mentions a cousin Jane Frances Fetherstonhaugh (correct spelling
-although there is several varations I have seen) of 106 North Parade
Belfast. The Ulster Covenant 1912 throws up A M Fetherstonhaugh (wrongly
transcribed). The Will would have been written around 1941. Any information
on the Fetherstonhaugh's times at 106 North Parade and any jobs noted would
be interesting. I think there is a link to a Rev Fetherstonhaugh of
Knockbreda Parish Church who died around 1800.
Very many thanks
Peter

Another sucess Lennon/Wylie. The Will had 108 typed in but it had been scored
out in pencil and 106 entered, and as you say some confusion from numbering elsewere in the street. A lot of the houses in this street have been
sub-divided into bed sits and flats hence after 1968 no record
further.
Thanks again for all the very quick responses. All this is building up a
good foundation for further research.
I assume Rupert John - Solicitor - Mountmellick - was under the
"names" section for 1913 SD. Spooky as I have living relatives
from a completely different side of the family who lived and worked in
Mountmellick and have just now bought a plot of land there to build a
retirement home Mountmellick is not that a big place but there appears to be
Fetherstonhaughs in Dublin not that far away

If I get it right ,you were typing up "Fetherstonhaugh" before my
request?? if you are looking for Fetherstonhaughs or Fetherstons here is a
good website I came accross. Along the scroll bar to the left to "the
house of Fetherstonhaugh" plus "wills" etc has good
references to both and several ways of spelling the names. The site has lots
on Irish connections, North and South. Hope this helps you, and thanks again
for all the effort.

Hi Lennon/Wylie,
This is a new Fetherstonhaugh to me and may be connected. My Fetherstonhaugh
married James Scott in 1866 at "Alfred St Presbyterian Church"
.....there is none....it was a "meeting house" that in time
became/moved to become Fitzroy Presbyterian Church. The area of Belfast is
right and my James Vance Scott is recorded as being born in Catherine Street
in 1867. I think they lived nearby and the Birth happened at Catherine
St....can't find Scotts there in or around 1867.
Will check out this new Fetherstonhaugh.
thanks
Peter

Belfast Fire Brigade
Lennon/Wylie
Posted: Fri Mar 16, 2007 9:16 am Post subject: Belfast Fire
Brigade
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/bill.broadhurst/index.htm
Bill Broadhurst retired on 24th October 2003 from the Northern Ireland
Fire Brigade while Harry Welsh officially retired on the 1st June 2003.
Initially they became friends during their service together on White Watch
at Central Fire Station Chichester street Belfast, when they discussed the
history of the Belfast Brigade and where it could be found. Shortly
afterwards as a search began it quickly became apparent that all or most of
the records kept by the brigade had been destroyed or re-cycled during the
Second World War to assist with paper shortages.
The first part of their journey took them to The Linenhall Library in
Belfast renound for its historical archives, and at first not knowing
exactly what they were seeking their search seemed to be one of folly. It
was only as they became more familiar with the services provided by the
library that they began to put together the first snippets of references to
the fire brigade from different sources such as. The Water Service, The
Police Service, Early leglislation, Old maps and Newspapers.

Brigade
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/bill.broadhurst/pageeleven.htm
In December 1904 the Bangor Urban District Council met and decided to go
ahead with preparations to provide a fire brigade for the town, and Samuel
T. Coulter was appointed as Chief Officer of the new Bangor fire brigade
which was officially inaugurated on 1 January 1905.

Posted: Sat Aug 18, 2007 11:51 pm Post subject: William Gray
Seaforth Highlanders
Hi i am new to this but i am trying to locate information on my
Grandfather's Military Background. His name Was William Craig Gray and he
was a private in the 1st Bat. Seaforth Highlanders between 1914 and 1920.
His Regt No 10289. He was apparently originally from Scotland but Lived in
Belfast after he left the Army and married my Grandmother in 1920. This is
all the info i have so if anyone can help it wud be great

Hello nicapri Welcome to the Forum
Do you have the details of the marriage, like the certificate or
anything? the church whereabouts may give you a clue to the area they lived
in, I'm away from my street directories at the moment but I will check them
later for any William Grays and let you know.
Would 1907 have been too early? its online now anyway
http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/BSD1907_Streets_Start.htm
I will check the 1918-23 and onwards later today.

Yep they were Married at Knockbreda C.O.I, Belfast on the 9th Oct 1920, I
know that they lived at 131 Avoneil Road, Belfast and that my Grandfather's
Birth Certificate has him listed at 40 Trillick Street at the time of their
Marriage (Wifes Name Olive Mary Bosomworth) His Dad is listed as James Gray
and his dad apparently Catherine Gray (Maiden Name Unknown)
This is were my problem starts I don't know his mums maiden name and
apparently they came from Scotland so i don't know when they arrived in
Ireland were they were living in Scotland, or were my Grandfather was born

Were Do i Start i am signed up with Ancestry.co.uk but there are loads of
William Grays in Scotland what do i need to narrow this down. I thought army
services record might hold some clues but as i don't have any yet and don't
know if i'll be able to get any i am at a lose.

Sorry but im confused with that statement... ... do you mean the marriage
certificate?
Anyway... the birth certificate should give the mothers maiden name...
You should be able to estimate his age which will give you the year...
hopefully you wont have to look for too many records... cross reference that
with the Fathers name
IF he was born in Scotland you should really look at
www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Oops your right should have been Marriage Certificate sorry. ok here is what
i Know for definite:
William Craig Gray born 1888 / 89 Scotland
Joined the first Battalion the Seaforth Highlanders 1914 and entered the
war in France Aug 1915. he Served until 1920
William Craig Gray Married Olive Mary Bosomworth 9th October 1920 at
Knockbreda COI, Belfast.
I Know he died when my Father was 2 and my Father was Born 13 Aug 1939 so
i am estimating that he died in around 1941 and may be buried at Knockbreda
Church Cemetry am going there to find out
On the Marriage Certificate his father is listed as a James Gray and that
they lived at 40 Trillick Street, Belfast
Between 1918 to 1931 Street directories show a Jas Gray, Labourer living
at 40 Trillick St and Directories from 1940 to 1950 show a Mrs Catherine
Gray at 40 Trillick St Could this be his mother?? who knows
Hope this now makes a bit more sense instead of the wild rambling i was
doing before
eddiec
Posted: Tue Aug 21, 2007 10:40 pm Post subject:
makes a lot more sense
I would agree it looks like his mother... and if she was in the 1940
directory chances are thats when James died.
If he was born in Scotland then Scotlandspeople.gov.uk is the way to go
to find his birth... you may need to check a few records out but they are
not prohibitively expensive... and Scottish records will give you a lot more
info than the Irish ones such as the parents marriage details... they also
have all the census data on line.

I don't think your work is quite over yet Lennon/Wylie there are still a lot of
blanks and dates need confirming so i am sure myself or Jackie will be in
contact agian.
infact i have a question for yourself or Eddie now
Are there any records of Scots/English coming to Ireland i.e. Ship
records like you have with those who immagrated to foriegn lands. Would like
to know when and how my ancestors came to Ireland.
Also i have been able to get back to 1847 with another branch of my
family who were from Strabane and Lifford. But i am now at a stand still
because i can't locate any more records
Can either of you shed any light on these Queries and point me in the
right direction
Cheers
nicapri
Posted: Thu Aug 23, 2007 2:17 am Post subject:
Would also like to find out more about my Grandfather William Gray's
Military years, Have been in contact with the National Archives Kew and they
tell me it will cost £60 to do a search (less document Copies) on the burnt
Records and there is no Garantee that his Service record survived the
bombing in 1940 as only 25 to 30% of the records survived. so they may get
nothing
So really don't know wether it's worth spending £60
I have his rank, Number and regt. and also a medal card that i paid
£3.50 for showing him entering the Theatre of War in France 9th August 1915
What do you think? Is it worth a try?

Unless you are lucky and the log book of the ship survives somewhere the
answer is probably no!
There would have been hundreds of ships trading back and forward between
here and Scotland (not all passenger ships obviously) and if you had the
money you could purchase passage and not every instance would have been
recorded. Although if coming as a family passage on one of the steamers
would probably have been booked.
I could equate it to the Stranraer ferry... purchase a ticket as a
foot-passenger get on and off at the other side... except today a record of
your name would be on the passenger list... I wonder if the ferry line keep
those records? In 150 years will people be asking when did my ancestors come
over from Scotland/Ireland...? and will they be able to check the manifest?

I'm afraid thats a question only you can answer... is it worth £60 to
you for the attempt?
Have you tried the Great War Forum? I know a few people who have had a
very postive experience and a lot of help on their forums.

Hi,
My ancestor Samuel McCULLY, was born 20 Sep 1819, Edenderry, Belfast,
to Robert McCULLY and Jane BAILEY (aka WALLACE).
There are several Edenderrys in Ireland however the one just out of
Belfast on the Shankill Road seems to be right place.
Can't find a whole lot on the web about it, appreciate any information
about the place.
Cheers
Jim

Lennon/Wylie
Dear Lennon/Wylie
Further to your query re above, a number of graveyards are comprised
within Belfast parish, and the index to these is contained within our
gravestone inscription records. For the adjacent parish of Shankill we have
only one graveyard surveyed - Shankill Interdenominational - but there is no
index for this and so the records do not appear on our databases. Any
references to Shankill in the context of Belfast refer to Belfast City
Cemetery.
Our apologies for any confusion and we do hope that we will be able to
assist with any further information requirements that you may have.
All best wishes
Willie O'Kane

Think they are trying to say there is a graveyard in Shankill but we dont
have the records, so if we do have records it must be City Cemetery (I
think)
Lennon/Wylie
Posted: Wed May 16, 2007 3:42 pm Post subject:
So their records say they have Shankill burials but they don't?
I wonder at what stage in the payment process do they tell you that?
Interesting

Hi I am looking for any link to my Grandmother Elizabeth Hamilton born in
Hillsborough circa 1901 but can find no birth record. I beleive she lived in
Virginia Street at the time of my mother's birth in 1941 with her older
sister Sarah Jane Sparrow nee Hamilton. I am not sure how the forum works or
what information I can get by requesting a look up for this address. Can
anyone help or point me in the right direction? Many thanks.

Hello Blackcornish, Welcome to the Forum
first of all - I laughed out loud at the description in your profile for

you're in good company, we are all lost to genealogy, well, I am anyway
Do you have Elizabeth's fathers name?, his trade?

Hi Lennon/Wylie, yes my daughter thinks I am very sad, she comes back from
'clubbing' in the early hours and I am still searching websites...it is a
curse!
As you may have gathered from my other posting, Elizabeth's father is
John Hamilton the Pork Cutter. The Gerald Sparrow you found is my
Grandmothers sister's husband. Living there until 1968 would make sense as I
am told that Sarah Jane Sparrow died around that time. I will have to look
into the Alex Hamilton and Isabella Hamilton, I have no idea who they could
be.
Thanks again Lennon/Wylie

Hi Lennon/Wylie, yes it's quite unusual isn't it. My family name is Mannix (which my
Dad is researching at the moment) it apparantly means mad Monk or something,
which would be quite appropriate for us.
I have found some great info on Samuel Hamilton who died in WW1, there
are some very useful sites out there. Unfortunately I don't know what
relation to my Great Grandfather he was. He could have been his brother or
his son but can find nothing else at the moment.
I may have to cancel Christmas at this rate!!
How long have you been researching and how well are you doing?
Lennon/Wylie
Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2007 7:19 pm Post subject:
Hi Carole, I'm with you on cancelling Christmas, save me giving the house
its annual clean
My dad got me started about 4 years ago, he actually did all the foot
work, I just searched online but I didn't find an awful lot, a few bits and
pieces but it was still nice to find them anyway, today is the first big
break I've had, I found what I think is my great great granda (I hope) in
the 1852 Street Directory, which, by the way I've just put on the site.

btw have you any Nutters in your family seeing as you corner the market
on unusual names, I just got WW1 medals for an H. Nutter, *rolls eyes

"Although not one of my lines, I do happen to have
some research on the Nutter family in Ireland/Northern Ireland
and would be happy to share this with any fellow researcher who may find it
of help to them. Starting from Samuel Nutter who married in Belfast
in mid 1800's and following through his son Thomas Nutter,
who married in Belfast then moved to Londonderry. I also have some
details of a John Nutter from the same timescale as Thomas, albeit
haven't yet proven a link to him and Samuel. I can be contacted via scotmum

Hi, does anyone know where I can get records online of births in Co. Tyrone.
My great grandfather Peter McLoughlin was born there around 1870 ish could
be up to 1872, his father was Andrew McLoughlin and his Mother Catherine,
but I dont know anything else. I have looked on Emerald and Ulster Ancestry
sites but they dont have the records. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks Lennon/Wylie.

As it was after 1864 there should be a civil registration.
If you contact GRONI... www.groni.gov.uk ... they can do a search for
you. Obviously there is a charge for this but i think they will search one
or two years either side of the date you give them. Fuller information
should be on the site.
As it was before partition the information will also be available from
the GRO in Dublin... www.groireland.ie/
