Hello Belfast Listers I have just discovered from the 1901 census that my Grandmother Lizzie IRVINE had a brother William age 17 in the 1901 census. He also had numerous other sisters and was the son of James and Ellen IRVINE of Epworth St. in Belfast. My grandmother, who preferred the name of Elizabeth to Lizzie married a James CARSE in 1902 and emigrated to Canada in 1906, with two daughters Margaret born in 1903 and Sarah Harriet in 1906. I am hoping that this might ring a bell with present day persons who are descended from this William IRVINE or someone who may know an IRVINE family could bring this notice to their attention. I would very much like to connect with present day descendents to compare notes and family information. Al Valentine Canada [email protected]
