12th July and Orange Lodges - Help offered
« on: Wednesday 01 October 08 10:43 UTC (UK) »

If anyone would like to avail of my Orange Order knowledge don't hesitate to get in touch with me. I a member of the Institution in the County Antrim area but have been researching the Orange Order for quite a while now (and indeed was employed as a researcher by the Grand Lodge of Ireland for a short while in 2007)

I have a number of contacts in different parts of Ireland relating to the Orange Order and would be happy to explore your own family's 'Orange roots'...

I am currently working on an archive for my own District and Lodge so would be happy to help you guys out if I can.

Hi Fmni

My grandmother used to say that her father
William James George (born 1874) was a member of the Orange order. He lived in Larne County Antrim and his family were from the Magheramorne/Ballycarry area.

In one of the links above there is a photo of the Magheramorne Independent Orange Lodge and I think one of the gentlemen may be Williams father James George (born c 1850)

Any help you could give would be marvellous.

Sort of a preliminary question kalasira - but you say that when he died you could have his sash/collarette.

Do you have this now then or know where it might be? There would be a number on it, e.g. L.O.L. ?? - if you find out that, I can fill you in on the lodge itself.

Just on another note - i though the name Eddie Dinsmore was familiar to me, I work part time as a football researcher - there is an "Eddie Dinsmore" still involved in local football in northern ireland with an amateur Belfast club called 'Sirocco Works' - quite a historic club and formed out of a famous factory - which sadly was levelled a while back. Do you know of your family having any connections with Sirocco?

'Family circle' just refers to the wider family outside parents, siblings, children.

Lizzie, I have put a request in with another rootschatter who looks up Belfast Telegraph notices. If those family members you listed were still part of the Institution when they died, their own private lodge will have placed a death notice within the next couple of days regarding their Brother's death. Given that you're Great Uncle died on the 11th July as well, his death and events the following day in the lodge may still be fresh in the memory of any existing members.

The look-ups either way, should then give me the lodge number to work off regarding finding further information.

Further to that, the guy (markinbelfast) has come back extremely quick with an answer...

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,335759.30.html

Unfortunately there are no death notices relating to their membership of the Orange Order - although he has mentioned that there are plenty of other clubs and societies in the death notices section for your relatives - perhaps a PM to him might help you with a little more information from what he remembers reading today about them as individuals.

As for the Orange links - not finding a death notice is somewhat of a brickwall - it may be worth asking some more living relatives to elaborate if possible.

I did post up names there of a living person who is probably connected, but just realised I can't. Are you related to the chairman of Dundela FC, based in East Belfast?

I am searching for details of my G Grandfather , Matthew Cairns , who married a Mary Elizabeth Graham in Rasharkin around 1894 before coming to Scotland.
He was an Orangeman , but I don't know if he joined in Ulster or in Scotland.
Don't know if you can help , but thought I'd ask anyway.
All his stuff was passed onto my Mum's cousin(s) and we have lost contact with them
Sorry but that's all the info I can provide.
