Hi

"Not sure" ?      What do you have ?     

What is your Grandfather's name and full details?



Assumption, Heather Street ?      Heather Street, Belfast?

John Harry "1899"
Robert James "1886"
Mary "1888"
SAMUEL "1896"   ( your grandfather? )

Hilland Street ?

Did Samuel emigrate from Belfast to . . . . .  Canada ?

( Thanks Kev )

Did he emigrate? ( to Canada ? ) 1930

His father ( I assume ) signed 1901 census as Samuel F Boyd

I don’t think so unless it’s something he kept hidden he was in the navy right through from ww1 to ww2 all be it switching to the merchant navy between wars.

His other brother David was shot in 1922 found newspaper article with family claiming compensation they stated parents only support was daughter Mary my grandad was at sea and suggests other two brother not in Belfast either
