Hi everyone,
                     I would like to say thanks very much for all your information
                     that you sent me.       I can now cross Alexander & Alice off.
                     Some times it’s easy to make the age of people fit the bill.

                    Alice is the link on my fathers side, guess I was hoping they
                    where the right one’s.      Need to keep searching.
                    Best regards and again thank you all.
                          Billy.

 Hi everyone,
                      Could anyone please help, I’am searching for two family names.
                      Alice Parsons c1861 & Alexander Patience c1864, married in Belfast
                      26 December 1881.   Father John Patience.

                      They had two children, Alexander 1883, Henrietta 1886, who pasted
                      away age 2 1889.
                      1886 is the last record that I can find of both parents.

                      There is a Alexander Patience 28, who married in Belfast 1893.
                      Marked down as widower, same father’s name John.
                      I can’t find any information on a death Alice Patience, who’s husband
                      is called Alexander.     This Alexander could fit in but not sure.

                      Here is my brick wall.
                      I have found a Alexander Patience buried 7 June 1920. Plot H Zone C /2451.
                      Alice Patience buried 16 June 1923.  No age down. 
                      Place of death Millers Point.
                      Rockwood Cemetery, Rockwood.

                       I have been in touch with the cemetery, but sorry to say no luck
                       with any age.  Would there be any information on records that might
                       help find if there is a link to Belfast?

                       Any help would be appreciated, best regards.
                             Billy.

Hi cwatterson,
                     Just read your message, I would say most plots would be family members.
                     You could start and search for death notices in the newspapers.
                     There might be something which could help you.

                     You could search the Belfast Street Directory’s and see who’s living
                     at the address after the death.   It’s usually the head of house.
                     Try if any stuff on PRONI WILL’S.

                     Best of luck,     Billy.

Hi everyone,

                  Again many thanks, glad to find out William was part of the same family.
                  James Mayne Trainer was a youngest brother to Margaret.
                  There was a James born 1893, but died in 1914.


                   The next born after Margaret was a brother, William Trainer.
                   Have him living 141 St Cuthberts Road, married.
                   Slowly getting to fill the right information on the family.

                    Best regards to you all,     Billy.

Hi everyone,
                       Thanks to everyone who have help me, I will get everything down
                        on paper.       William had ten children, can see why they aren’t named.
                        Everyone has been great.

                        I’am sure he is the son of Margaret Moffitt, will search more on her.
                         With William’s death at 41 years, though a notice for the Moffitt family.
                         Best regards from a cloudy day in Shropshire,     Billy.

Hi cath151,
                      Thanks very much for your message, I will have a search on
                       local library archives.
                       Hopefully some family names will match with what I found
                       on the 1939 register.

                       Best regards, Billy.

Hi everyone,
                   Can anyone help?   Have found William Turner 9 May 1920,  living with
                   Syndey and Margaret Moffitt nee Trainer in the 1939 register Gateshead.

                   mother named as Trainer to be one of the same.
                   Margaret married Syndey in 1921 Gateshead.

                   Looking for information on his death reg/Dec 1961, age 41.
                   Many thanks for your help,      Billy.

Hi everyone,
                    Just a update on Gibson Parsons, I was wrong in thinking he moved to
                    America.   Full name is James Gibson Kerr Parsons,  retired postal worker.
                    Lived in Belfast till his death, 24 October 2003 I believe him to be buried
                    in Dundonald Cemtery.   His wife Hilda Maud died 19 September 2022.

                    Many thanks to Hilda’s sister Margaret, who put back on the right path.
                    Also the members here, thanks.
                                        Billy.

  Hi KLittle,
                  Don’t know if you have got the PM message I sent ?
                  Have found a death notice for Sarah E. Parsons, nee Barr.
                  She is your Grandfather William’s mother.

                  It mentions him and Hilda plus two grandchildren living
                   in Australia . Dated  May 5 1967.
                  Best regards,    Billy.
