Hi Alf, imteresting tombstone, thanks for sending the photo. I don’t know Bangor well enough, but The Tower appears to be different to The Tower House on the Quay, so the owner in 1907 with the help of http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/PT19072.htm#BANGOR appears to be
White, Wm., J.P., The Tower, Clifton
but that set me off to Ros Davies website http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rosdavies/PLACENAMES/CiCz.htm#Ci to find clifton and so found
Clifton  Bangor . house & 3 acres; in Corporation townland near Bangor town; leased by David Connor in 1863 from Robert E. Ward; site of recreation grounds  GV; Bangor p17,  I hope others take on the connections eg marriages etc
Good luck, jim
