Dean seems to be trying to follow the chap mentioned on the final replies now from the one many initially assisted him with on the Co Antrim thread started 17th Sep (actually 2 threads, since merged) https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=853228.0 Ballybrick https://www.townlands.ie/down/iveagh-upper-lower-half/drumballyroney/ballybrick/ballybrick/ was mentioned by Aghadowey reply 19 and Kiltaglassan provided the same 1901/1911 census links in reply 35.
Sandra casts doubt on the 1944 Canadian death date mentioned on his other post today in the Canada board as was for a 69 year old.

The Alexander in Ballybrick (Banbridge Poor Law Union confirmed by census images) is possibly a Alexander Stewart married Winifred Fitzgerald 25th December 1924 Banbridge District, the GRONI image would confirm. If so presumably not your Alexander.

At the start of your other post you said
Quote
they had my grandad Terence Leo stewart, born around 1923
yet you now know parents Alexander Stuart & Margaret Gray married in St Mary's RC church, Belfast, on 5 December 1923 and Terence Leo's GRO death Q3 2011 in Worcestershire District indicates born 1924. Further Gaffy confirmed Terence was baptised St Mary's, Belfast, in 1924. May be worth getting all the paper trail in order. https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/ordering-life-event-certificates
