Hi there, just spotted this post. My grandfather was William Hawthorne, one of the brothers of Hugh. Most of the info you have is correct. My daughter had been working on the family tree pre lockdown and by chance my husband an I were visiting Ireland. I contacted the minister at Magragall (Rev Dark) who is a font of knowledge on the family. He has been contacted over the years from family members far and wide. We had one living relative still living there and he had been working tirelessly to have two family members whose names had been missed from the war memorial in Lisburn. He was successful and their names were added in the last few years.

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

My grandfather was William Hawthorne, one of the brothers of Hugh. 

Would this be your grandfather with his brother Hugh in the 1901 census?

Your great grandfather Hugh and my grandfather William were brothers.  There is a really good article posted a few years ago which was sent to me by Rev Dark re the names of the two brothers being put onto the war memorial in Lisburn. If I can figure out I’ll send you the link. Most of the brothers and a brother-in-law and a cousin also fought in the Great War. All joined an Irish regiment except for my grandfather who joined a Scottish one! Don’t know why but we’re all Scottish! My  father was called James !
