Antrim / William Alderdice, a Bailiff in Belfast
« on: Saturday 14 January 12 17:50 GMT (UK) »
Hello Everybody
I am trying to find out about a William Alderdice, who was described as 'bailiff' at the time of his daughter's marriage in Belfast in 1864. Can anyone tell me, please, what the job of bailiff in Belfast at this time would have entailed?
I cannot work out which William Alderdice is mine because all I know about him is that he had two daughters: Rebecca born c. 1845 and Maria born c. 1846 (and I know their marriage details).
Any help greatly appreciated!
