Hi everyone,
                    Just a update on Gibson Parsons, I was wrong in thinking he moved to
                    America.   Full name is James Gibson Kerr Parsons,  retired postal worker.
                    Lived in Belfast till his death, 24 October 2003 I believe him to be buried
                    in Dundonald Cemtery.   His wife Hilda Maud died 19 September 2022.

                    Many thanks to Hilda’s sister Margaret, who put back on the right path.
                    Also the members here, thanks.
                                        Billy.

 

Hello RJ137,
                     Thank you for message, I would like to find out about Hilda’s
                      life.  Searching on the grave in Belfast don’t have her name.
                      For any new burial you must already have a plot .
 
                      It was searching for a death notice which I came across it.
                      Only after coming back to England in December from Belfast.
                      Hilda is a daughter-in-law. At first thought she was daughter
                      born c1930’s.

                     Will email the church and might find out something.
                     Again many thanks,      Billy.

                     

                     

  Hi KLittle,
                  It’s great to hear that William is your Grandfather, sorry I never read
                  your message’s earlier.  Would love to be able  to share what I have.

                  It is still on going as I’am searching on Gibson Parsons family.
                  Found he moved to American, but still working it.
                  But he was not the first Parsons to go there, Isabella Adams nee Parsons
                  plus family moved to Pittsburgh early 1870’s.

                 Have sent my email in a pm. Looking forward to hearing from you.
                  Best regards,    Billy.

  Hi amondg,

                  Thank you for your help, will have a search next trip
                  to the library.  Hopefully will find something.
                  Have found most of her brothers and sisters but she
                  was the only living away.
                  Take care and thanks,      Billy.

 Hi BumbleB & amondg,

                                 My first search the 1939 reg for any Gladys Coleman
                                 as there was nothing in Belfast site’s only her birth.
                                 Her mother is the link to my family side.

                                 Have a lot of her family names and some death notices
                                 but her parents notices don’t give much.
                                 Free bmd give me a marriage year 1939.
                                 Searching will give me the date of death, then tried some
                                 Find a grave.     Everything points to it being right.

                                Just wanted it confirmed it was correct.
                                Best regards,     Billy.
