Harper
« on: Wednesday 04 November 09 17:06 UTC (UK) »
My grandfather was Samuel Harper, b.1914, and I believe from townland of Coolagh.  He had brothers, William (1910), Robert (1903) and a John (c1900 and possibily died as a young man) and a sister Anna Louise (c1905). 
My mother and uncles never knew their grandparents and this is what I am looking for. 
I found details from 1911 census in Tullybrisland, of the four siblings and they appear to living with mother Susan (c1873) and grandfather. 
It looks to me that Susan's maiden name may have been Harper as she is shown as daughter, not daughter-in-law.
Another census extract for Coolagh shows a William Harper (c1867) living with an older Sister.
Has anyone any information to confirm the family line?  Was Susan Harper before marriage?  Is the extract from Coolagh the father?
I would be grateful for any information.
