Hi Aghadowey
Sorry- only just saw your post- for some reason i didnt get an email notification!
Anyway, that is interesting what you say about "private burials until 1934". Did they close the cemetery to new burials in 1934? If so, then my William John must be buried elsewhere- though the options are narrowing greatly as he lived in the Shankill area of Belfast and apparently he isnt in the City Cemetery either!
Re Arthur Magee, I think he died round about 1890-1897, but that is a guess, there is nothing on PRONI wills, nor a death registration on familysearch pilot site... it must have been before 1911 as he does not appear to be on the 1911 census. I am starting to think he disappeared into thin air...
many thanks for your help
