Previous topic- https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=804996

William Cairns died 1890 but his widow Sarah Cairns was alive and living at 23 Epworth St., Belfast in 1908.
1908 directory- http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/ecomplete1908.htm (not at that address in 1910 directory)

1910 census- www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Down/Pottinger__part_of_/Bright_Street/220268
1912 directory- http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/bcomplete1912_b.htm
1918 directory- http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/bcomplete1918_b.htm

1921 death for Sarah Cairns, widow of William Cairns farmer- informant was niece Lizzie Murray-

There is another Sarah and William Cairns

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Down/Ballykeel/Drumlough/1240319/

And William is also a farmer

So the death posted earlier may be this Sarah?

Given that this is Drumlough - could this be "your" Williams son?
