more information about newspaper artlicle ?
« on: Tuesday 19 May 15 20:41 BST (UK) »


This notice appeared in the Belfast news dated 25th June 1877. I think it may relate to my GGG Grandfather John Williamson so i was wondering is there anyway to find out what was going on so I can assess if this is my John or not? Joseph Williamson was my GG Grandfather. Any help gratefully recieved.

Thanks for reading

You could look on PRONI for a Will.. the property had to be sold because they sued each other.
