Antrim / Wilson Proctor
« on: Friday 13 July 12 20:43 BST (UK)  »
Hi all  :)

I can't find a burial site for Wilson Proctor who died Belfast 1887 and who possibly lived east Belfast. 

I also can't find a burial site for his wife Theresa Proctor - she may have died c 1896 but I can't be certain.  Again, she may have lived east Belfast. I don't know their religious affiliation but they don't seem to be in the City Cemetery and, apart from Milltown Cemetery, can't think where they may be.  Many thanks  :)  I

Canada / William Gosen
« on: Monday 09 July 12 13:28 BST (UK)  »
Hi I'm hoping someone can help me find a marriage for William Gosen and Amelia Holman - possibly Canada and region of 1870, give or take a few years.

There is a WG in 1881 Welsh census plus Amelia Gosen but they lived in different addresses.  His birth is given as Canada and I'm wondering if they met and married there before settling in Wales.  Any help much appreciated  :)

Dublin / Orphanage in Dublin ??
« on: Monday 06 February 12 17:03 GMT (UK)  »
Hello All

Would anyone know why protestant children from Belfast would be sent to an orphanage in Dublin c 1925 please?  I have no details to add other than it seems to have happened.  Someone suggested there may have been either an Orange Order or Masonic orphanage in Dublin but I have no idea if the family were involved with either.

Any insight much appreciated   :)

Alderney, Guernsey, Jersey, Sark / Amelia (Jane?) Holman - Alderney
« on: Friday 11 November 11 09:43 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all

I'm trying to find the marriage records of Amelia Holman to William Gosen.  Amelia was born Alderney about 1853 and she appears in the Welsh census 1881/1891.  I can't seem to find any marriage record for either area so I don't know if they met and married elsewhere.

William is 'not at home' on the 1881 census and Amelia seems to be living with someone else in 1891 census.

Any help much appreciated  :)

Down / Catherine Elizabeth Foster
« on: Sunday 17 July 11 19:58 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone please help me with the death record of Catherine Elizabeth Foster born Belfast 1867.  She lived in Ballymacarret and died circa 1930s or early 1940s.  Someone said her house in Island Street may have been bombed during the blitz - but please note, if it is true, I don't believe she died of this !!!!  Any help would be greatly appreciated  :)

Donegal / Mary Robinson nee Hughes
« on: Sunday 17 July 11 19:52 BST (UK)  »
I wonder if anyone could help me with the birth (or other records) for Mary Robinson nee Hughes.  The 1901 census shows she was 40 years old and born in Co Donegal and her marriage record shows her father was Henry Hughes.  She married Patrick Robinson in 1884.

Also, I've never found death records for Mary - I don't know if she was separated from Patrick later on.  Many thanks in anticipation  :)
