1911 Lookup McPherson -COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 22 March 08 15:56 GMT (UK) »
Am trying to find the date of deaths in Belfast/Co Down somewhere 1930/1940s.

   WILLIAM MCPHERSON b 1881 Cork City,
   WALTER MCPHERSON b 1885 Cork City.

These 2 unmarried brothers lived with their unmarried sister Katie b Guildford 1874 died Ballywalter 1976ish.
Army family orphaned, ended up at Royal Hib School, moved to Belfast as adults.
Can someone look on 1911 census if possible please.
Difficult to get any info,
Thanks Brionne.

1911 census for Co. Antrim and Co. Down just put online a few days ago. Happy searching!

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Don't think anything that recent for Northern Ireland is online. Have you tried looking in any directories for that period?

Have you tried the Belfast City Cemetery records at ancestryireland.com?  These start in 1869 but I don't know how far forward they come.  Unfortunately they are pay per view :'( but might be worth a try.

Another idea ... if you are coming to Belfast to search, the Linenhall Library in Donegall Square has birth marriage and death notices from the Belfast Newsletter for the late 1940s /early 1950s alphabetised in books, each covering 6 months.
