I am a first time poster to this list. I am looking for information on my gggrandfather William Robert PORTER (1839-1927) who lived at 11 McAdam's in Sandy Row, Belfast. (I can't seem to find that location on any current Belfast map). William was baptized at the Townsend Street Presbyterian church in 1839 and was a tenter in the linen mills. His wife was Alice Sarah BRADSHAW (1842-1915). Alice was baptized at the Donegal Square Methodist Church and they were married at St. Anne's, Parish of Belfast in 1860. Their children were Oliver, Thompson, Alice, Ned, Jane, William, Susan and Robin. My ggfather was Oliver PORTER a poet and friend of Thomas CARNDUFF. He lived the beginning of his life in the linen mills, Hillsborough, the Peel Institute in London, Revelstoke, Canada and then moved to San Pedro, California. One of the tales in my family is that the BRADSHAWs ran a coach business from Belfast to Dublin before the railways. Any info or insight to further leads would be very helpful.
