Are there directories for 1893-94 and 1895-96? I know that John was in Belfast by April 1897. The lists of Dunns(Dunnes)in the directories during those years might provide the answer. Also, was there a census taken around that time? I cannot thank you and Peter enough for your help. I often visit John's grave here in Belfast and have wondereed about him for many years. My father's family (7 boys - they descended from Patrick, who was born in West Rutland in 1893)knew virtually nothing about their grandfather John. Unfortunately my father is the last surviving son (he's 81)and he has also often wondered about John, and it would be marvellous to be able to complete the story for him. If I can be of any help to you in research you are carrying out in Ireland please let me know. Gerry Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
