Antrim / Constable James Alexander Nixon Born 1923 - Died 1972
« on: Friday 12 May 17 16:41 BST (UK)  »
Constable James Alexander Nixon (member of the RUC)
Died 13 December 1972, aged 49
Fatally shot by terrorist gunmen while off duty leaving a hotel on the Antrim Road, Belfast.

James was an uncle of mine who I met just the once before he died. He gave me a rubber bullet as a present which I still have.

Would love to contact any members of his family but have hit a dead end.

Can anyone help?

Clackmannanshire / Francis Donaldson, Clackmannan Born 1669
« on: Thursday 26 January 17 14:44 GMT (UK)  »
I have managed to trace my Great x 9 Grandfather on my mothers side, born in Clackmannan 1669 and married to Catherine Hutcheson born 1670. They married in 1710 and had a child James in 1712 who himself married Margaret Drysdale. Is it possible to trace the Donaldson line further back or have I reached my limit with regards to records/registers kept?
