I wish I knew what kind of "Factory Worker" she was. Was it linen, lace, flax, yarn, glass or any other number of products that she worked with. There has got to be a way to research this information.

I'm determined and appreciate everyone having a look at my post. Any suggestions are very much appreciated.

Have a lovely day!

Here is a 1910 street directory for Banbridge

http://www.libraryireland.com/UlsterDirectory1910/Banbridge.php

At least one of the factories listed remains, it was Robinon and Cleavers in 1910 and is now Ulster Weavers (although not sure if there is still a factory, but they definitely still have a business premises)

There is records relating to Robinsons and Clevers in the Public records office

Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.
