Kelly/Benson family, Sultan Street, Belfast

[NikkySmith]

Trying to find out some information about Kathleen Kelly, who married Terence Benson and was living in 6 Sultan Street, Belfast, in roughly 1950s/1960s - I can't look up BMD dates without going to Belfast and only have the names and where they lived at that time, and unfortunately Kathleen Kelly is a very common name in Ireland  I believe they are both now deceased, but does anyone have any details such as BMD dates? I'm hoping someone somewhere recognises the family names and knows who her parents were or something    I've been stuck on this for a while and thought I would try asking in here

Are you sure Kathy and Terence married? An old post on another forum suggests he lived in America and married a girl from Puerto Rico-

Going by estimated age in that post it's possible he might still be alive and we aren't allowed to post details of living, or possibly living, people.

If you google his name + belfast other posts on other sites come up

Yes - that Terence Benson is their son, I believe...

There is a discussion on this forum between a 'Bella Bailey' and a 'Bretty' that mentions them, saying that both are deceased and that Terence junior is in America (and presumably still living). It was the parents I was interested in, the mother in particular, and are apparently both deceased :-)

I found that record, and the birth date would be about right, but without any other information to go on I don't know for sure
