Thanks

It's a small street in behind UTV studios on the Ormeau Road - doesn't seem to exist any more.  It was  between the UTV Internet logo and Walnut Street on the attached link to Google Maps

Ah Brilliant, thanks for that. I presume it was probably terraces? It transpires from his birth certificate that my Great grandfather was born in Outram street.

Outram Street was still there in 1911 census- search with 'outram' as townland/street and then click on a name to get link to details about occupants, houses, etc.

How wonderful to hear about your familys connection to Outram Street.

My family lived in Outram Street in 1880, so a bit before your family. I had a look on the street directories but couldnt see them, I wonder if they perhaps lodged with someone, or lived there only for a short time, as I know they moved to Walmer Street.

Rebecca was my great aunt, did you find any information about her as I am researching my family and we might have some information to share, especially as we are related.

James
