"Apparently, the family then moved to Belfast and is listed at 12 Ritchie Street in 1901 census."
12 is the enumerator’s number for the household and may not be the street number of the house

As I said, 12 is the enumerator's number for the household.

Ritchie St. off York Road
25. Lusk, A., labourer

1907- http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/qrcomplete1907.htm
1908- http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/qrcomplete1908.htm

Remember that directories were often compiled and printed before the date on them to make them seem more up-to-date (i.e. 1908 directory compiled & printed 1907)
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

William Fleck death record not marriage !  If these Flacks/Flecks are connected they married into our family and lived in Belfast at one point
