Brenda thank you for your reply. I guess that is a strong possibility however I was told the person concerned was a non drinker. Judith

Recently I was given some postcards from around 1908-1912. One was written down Co. Limerick possibly Kilmallock area and it says. I quote "Plenty of turpentine but very dry at present" also another one from Newbridge Co. Kildare, quoting: "This is our first call for some turpentine" and another one from Killarney " Plenty of Turpintine about here and it is not overripe here yet" Now can SKS tell me what were they referring to as I doubt it was the "turps" we use for cleaning.!! Many thanks Judith

Hi - Do you know of anyone interested in James Camak, Born May 8, 1788, in County Down, Ireland? We found his gravesite in Alabama. We also found four Flinn gravesites, but none mentioned Ireland as did the Camak marker. Birth years of the Flinns are 1817, 1824, 1869, and 1899.

Apologies! As some of you might have realised, the post below should read: RIDDAL.- John Riddal, Ballygawley, County Tyrone, Ireland, is desirous of hearing from his son John, who left Ireland for New Zealand about 16 years ago; last heard of in Auckland. Any information regarding him will be thankfully received. Colonial and Australian papers please copy. and not ''116 years ago'' as I posted. oops! Again, this goes to show how easy it is to make mistakes while transcribing, and why it is always important to check out the source when necessary.

Hi, I am looking for any information on a Thomas Shields at the above address in 1861 Street Directory. He was a bookkeeper. Is there a Census aroung that date??. I am looking for other family members Any help would be appreciated. Louie Dunn

The first complete census for Belfast is, sadly, the 1901. There are many other directories, but they will not help with family members. I'd look in the birth, marriage, and death indeces for the name. Beyond simple index entries, some birth certs are available from the time period at LDS Family History Centers. It will require some digging I'm afraid. Andy Airriess Belfast>Liverpool>USA McCormick, Boyd, Shaw, Muckle, Ireland, and more.
