Hello list, A little bit off subject. Would some kind soul please give me the physical address of the "Office of Tourism" in Antrim. We are planning on doing a bit of sightseeing as well as research. We have been told that in May one does not need reservations as long as you are not in Dublin or Belfast. Also informed that the tourism office will make nightly reservations for a small fee. Is this correct? And where would this office be located? We are driving up to the Ballycastle area and to County Tyrone. Need a B&B for four adults two rooms. Any recommendations? Thank you for any and all advice. Sande

Dear Listers does anyone know if the memorial inscriptions at Milltown Graveyard between Randalstown and Antrim have been recorded and published? This is not the Milltown Cemetery in Belfast. Thanks Mark Lusby www.lusbyfamilyhistory.com
Church Photos on my web site at the link below. Alternatively, type: Jean McCarthy into the GOOGLE search engine for a direct link. I have added eighteen more photographs to the church photos pages on my web site. These have been kindly donated by Roy in the UK, Mary in USA, Christine in Vancouver and Liam in the UK. The new photos are of Ballybay Presbyterian Church, St Patrick’s Parish Church Ballymena, Conner Presbyterian Church, Kells Presbyterian Church, St Saviour’s Parish Church Antrim, Presbyterian Non Subscribing Church Dromore County Down, Christ Church C of I Kilmore, Church of Ireland Parish of Down and Hollymount, St. Baithens RC Church St Johnston County Donegal, R. C. Parish Church Fahan (St Mura's) County Donegal, and St Mary's R. C. Parish Church in Belfast. Very many sincere thanks to Roy, Mary, Christine and Liam who very kindly shared these lovely photos with us all. I have got quite a few more church photos that our fellow listers have kindly sent to me. I would hope to get these onto my web site over the weekend. I think it is wonderful to be able to perhaps see the photos of the church where our ancestors were baptised, married or buried. Particularly if it allows some folks to view the photos who may never get to Ireland to see them in reality. Kindest Regards. Jean McCarthy nee Moore. Staffordshire, England.

Recently, someone asked about a Commercial Travellers association and I have just came across the following which might help someone. Irish News January 19 1920: In this issue, there was an article about the 17th Annual General Meeting of the United Kingdom Commercial Travellers Association, held in the Central Hall, Rosemary Street, Belfast on Saturday 17th 1920. The membership had increased to 363 members and the new officers for 1920 were as follows: Chairman, Mr John Campbell; vice-chairman, Mr James.V.Gosney; treasurer, Mr A.Lee Richardson; secretary, Mr Jas.A. M�Geown; hon. Counsel, Mr Henry Hanna, KC; hon. Solicitor, Mr S.G.Crymble, LLB; representative on chamber of commerce, Mr W.H.Andrews, JP.; committee, Messrs. H. Russell, Frank Taylor, J.A Stanfield, A.G.Wallace, H.Faloon, Robt. Green, J.H.Tisley, G. Cassells, W.G.Stronge, J.R. Marr, W.H.Andrews, JP, W.B.Jones, W Curry, Hugh Grahame, F.M.Edmundson, George Hutchinson. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Small Business - Try our new resources site!
I have a sister of my grandfather Minnie Leathem, I have a few marriages possible for her, but none that are certain. She left Ireland with her husband ? and went to the congo as a missionary, where its thought they where murdered. I know her brothers tried to find her by hireing some one but I wonder if they put it in the paper. She was still single and 19 in 1911. Any ideas would be wonderful thanks Wendy.

Dear Listers I was fortunate in my quest for MCADOREY ancestors of Tannaghmore to be directed yesterday to an old burial ground on the Milltown Road off the main road between Antrim and Randalstown. Does anyone know the name of the graveyard or its history? It was surrounded by a high wall but had no church nearby. Right in the entrance way was a gravestone "Erected in memory of the McAdoreys who are buried in this graveyard". Unfortunately no individual McAdorey headstones seem to have survived.

Wendy, I think the Belfast Weekly News was taken over by the Belfast Newsletter in the early 1900s. I would presume that if a message was intended for S Afeica, then it would be copied. Would the missionary organisation be able to help? Brian "Wendy o.

Andy, I am confident that if it asks American, Australian papers etc to copy, then it means that there are indeed relatives in those countries.
