My Great Grandfather was Alexander Bloomer born Belfast 1875. He married Sarah Jane, maiden name also Bloomer in Sept 1896. Alexander's parents - William Bloomer b. 1835 and Ann McQuillan b. 1843 William's father was also William Bloomer. I don't have a birth date for him. Sarah Jane's parents - Richard Bloomer b. 1856 co. Armagh and Mary Burns b. 1856 co. Armagh. Her 2 grandfathers - Richard Bloomer and John Burns. I don't have birth dates for those men. I have been told that one side of the family came from Tynan, and the other side from Caledon. Given that Sarah Jane's father was co. Armagh, I'm working on the assumption that Alexander's family were from co. Tyrone. I can't establish any firm link back from Belfast to either Caledon or Tynan. I would appreciate any help in doing that. Many thanks, Gavin Bloomer
