Many thanks Rosemary, now I would like to find out if she is 'mine', any ideas as to where the 'old man' would have been on census night?

Could someone tell me if this site is completed? Will they be adding more? I am unable to find any specific explanation of the coverage on the site. I tried to find some of my Belfast people and they aren't coming up, yet I found them when I was at the archives and looked at the census myself. For instance in 1911 I found the family of O'Connell SHAW at 6 Shandon Park, Belfast. Sometimes this address is also described as Knock and South Belfast. I see on the address search that there are only two areas for 1901 and 5 for 1911. Just wondering ...... Regards Lyn In Oz.

If I recall correctly the site was originally set up to do West Belfast although it has plans to extend that to cover the city. I wouldn't count on seeing Shandon Park on it anytime soon though :( Eddie News Extracts: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~econnolly/ My Genealogy: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/e.connolly/ ----- Original Message ---- From: Lyn Nunn <lnunn@bigpond.net.au> To: irl-belfast-city@rootsweb.com; mcallisterfamily@btopenworld.com Sent: Tuesday, 11 September, 2007 10:00:11 PM Subject: [BELFAST] Belfast Families site - coverage?

Hello there, Photos of specific gravestones in Belfast City Cemetery I know this is a bit of a long shot, but I wonder if there is anyone on the list who might be able to take a few photos of some specific gravestones in the Belfast City Cemetery, if I was able to provide the exact locations?

Hello List, I have recently discovered that my wife's ancestor William WILSON was born in Belfast and wondered if anyone else was researching this family? William WILSON and wife Sarah MC FETRIDGE (ex IGI) if the information is correct they had a son William Christened at St Annes, Belfast on 15th of August 1824 With my thanks and best wishes, John

Have had a look and here you are: PEVERIL STREET is off lower Ormeau Road in Cromac Ward KIMBERLEY STREET runs from Blackwood Street to Holywood Road, Ormeau Ward (I suppose you could call it E. Belfast) ARDILAUN STREET, runs from Foundry Street to Fraser Street, Victoria Ward (again, I suppose E. Belfast) Cavehill Road is in Clifton Ward, North Belfast.

Hi, this is my first posting to this list. Please, does anyone have any information on Marjorie Lang CRAWFORD, daughter of John CRAWFORD, who is believed to have been born around 1907, possibly in Whiteabbey, Belfast. Any information at all about this family - or any suggestions on how to trace them - will be gratefully received. Many thanks. Wendy

To those that have replied, may I say many thanks, the links will provide plenty to go on. I'd best drop it now as I don't want a slapped wrist from the List mom/dad!
