The Nicholson Family of New Building and Ardmore.

Thank you for this further information. I have also come across Sarah, but I believe that she is the daughter of James, Williams older brother and 1st cousin to James William Frederic. I also have a John
Nicholson married to a Margaret, with a daughter Susan, but can find no connection with the rest of the family. Still finding the age difference between Edward and William hard to explane. I think there most be a link that is missing

Dear Caitlyn,
I think I can help, being a Nicholson brought up in Ardmore!
My grandfather was Cyril Nicholson of Beech Hill (died in 1962 I believe)
He had three children - Felicity Nicholson (born 1929 - 2017), Michael Nicholson my father (born 1933 - died 2023) and Thomas Nicholson (1935-2020)
My father Michael Nicholson inherited Beech Hill, where we lived until 1986, when it was sold and converted into a hotel. He became a High Court judge in Northern Ireland at that time, and it was sadly too dangerous to be able to live there.
I am interested to study the family history, particularly since my father has just died a few months ago.
