Hi,

Glad I was of some help.
Apparently, Elsie's son told me on the phone a while ago that Harriett was referred to as 'Babs'.
Harriett had another brother called William who died aged 99 in Scotland a few years ago. He didn't appear on the 1911 as he wasn't born.
I'll keep digging and see what else I can find out

Steph,

I had a Christmas phone call from Elsie Veighey's son yesterday and he was giving me some information on Harriet (known as Babs) who married a Gartside ( one of your relatives) he was called Curly, apparently he was a coal miner. Also, Elsie and Harriet's brother William (who lived until he was 99) married someone with the surname Dick.
Don't iknow if any of this information helps, but everytime this contact (Elsie's son) rings me, he comes up with more family information.

The James in the link is my grandfather who lived in Dunaweel and he was an only child of James (born 1861 died 1891). He is living with his stepfather and mother in Dunaweel.

Hope this helps.

Hi Dave,

You are busy bee!
This is my Dad's brother and his wife, so my uncle and aunt. Emily was a Harkness before she married my Dad's brother. I never knew where they were buried, but had visited them many years ago when I was very young, they lived off the Ormeau Road in Belfast.
Both my Dad and William were born in Dunaweel. My uncle worked for Edlington's bakery as a driver. They never had any children.
Where is the headstone?
Great piece of information, you are a star!
Thanks
Margaret:)

Dave,

Wow, this is fantastic, relatives of my Dad's, I heard him talk about these people in Redhills.
Interesting that WHYTE did the headstone.
You are a star!
Thanks again.

You're right you are brilliant, you have been helping me for years and you still come up with amazing stuff.
The headstones you have photographed are great, you have a great portfolio of pictures.
Thx again
