Maureen, I can tell you that the Wards for the Crumlin Road are: CLIFTON, COURT and SHANKILL. For Sydney Street the Ward is COURT. There is also Sydney Street West which comes under the SHANKILL Ward. Sorry I can't give you answers to the rest of your questions however, if I come across what you're looking for then I'll be in touch. Good luck.
