Hi

Joseph Victor Hyndman (1935-1992) appears in several trees on the 'Ancestry' website as the son of Joseph Hyndman from Ballyhackett in Co. Londonderry and Sarah Ann Dickson, who married in 1927, the Joseph in that 1927 marriage was born in 1882 to Robert Hyndman and Esther Currie, who married in 1879.

Lots of information in the trees, which of course comes with the usual big health warning about accuracy, but provided you are willing to validate such information before accepting it, it can be a useful alternative to inventing the wheel. If I were you though, I would order the 1935 birth record in the first instance, to be sure.

No problem, I've had another glance at a couple of trees on the 'Ancestry' website and they look reasonably sound, once you've verified the 1935 birth they would be worth a look in my opinion, good luck.
