Death Gardner/Gardiner Bell, dod Jan 22,1862, Annaghmore

[Peggy13]

Looking for further info on the death of Gardiner Bell who  died Jan 22, 1862 in Annaghmore. His wife was Margaret Leacock whom he married in 1841. Looking for names of children and Leacock  relatives,or actually any relatives who might be named in a writeup.
Thanks for any help

Have you looked at the 34 ancestry trees? Needs verified

Most have 3 children listed which gives you something to work with :- Anne 1852 - Margaret 1855 - William 1857

Parents - Joseph Bell 1772 - 1857  and Mary Pickering 1775 - 1857

Yes, I have looked at many trees. None mention spouses for children and none mention a son Thomas, who was present at Margaret’s death,if I have found the correct death but the place is right and the age is right for Margaret. There is extensive info on Gardiner’s lineage but not hers. Thought an obit or writeup might help with her side of the family and/or their children. Thank you, Sandra.

How do these people fit into your family history?

Ireland, Griffith’s Valuation, 1847-1864 -

Other people listed for Annaghmore  - are they related - have you investigated these names ?

John Bell - Gilliland.
James Bell - same.
Joseph Bell.
Francis Pickering.
George Pickering.
Benjamin Pickering.
.
Those names are also mentioned as some of the children of Joseph Bell and Mary Pickering, siblings of Gardner  - William - Joseph - Thomas - John - Gardner - James - Robert  ?

Brother James Bell in his 85 th year died at his residence Bells Hill Castledawson. James was buried in a family plot at Castledawson Churchyard  - 11 March 1896

Belfast Newsletter. 15 March 1896

Perhaps worth finding who else is buried in the family plot or in this churchyard.

Is there no limit to the amount of requests from any 1 person - 3145 to date, without ever helping others?

It's quite evident most of your requests are only accessible on a subscription site i.e. would it not be an idea to buy a sub to do your own research?

This has been noticed by quite a few RCers not just myself.

We all have requests at different times which can involve the help of others with different subscriptions but reaching 3145 posts without ever helping anyone else must be a record?

Sorry to be so blunt but it's been noticed by quite a few!

Does it never cross your mind, doing your own research is so much more enjoyable & exciting when you find the info?
