Barbara Behind the Belfast Central Library is the Newspaper Library about 50 yards away - sorry I do not have an Email address for them - so as you have his dateof death, etc, they should be able to do a quick look up for you to tell you if there was an article in the local Newspaper. Hopefully, they can tell how how you may be able to get an copy of the article.

Thanks to everyone who helped me find information about Dr James W T Smith. I had very little information on the family but I've learnt a lot about him this week. Some of the information came from the Belfast Central Library - Newspaper Library http://www.ni-libraries.net/libraries/belb/belfast-central-library-newspaper-library/ I rang them and they gave me an email address to write to - [email protected] Maybe that will help someone else with their research. regards Barbara Perth australia
