Looking for family links, i am sure i have many relatives back home and wish i could trace the tree. My great grandfather was William McAllister, lived in New Brunswick Canada, but came from Ireland. Had my grandfather in 1900 named James Goldwyn McAllister. He worked for the railroad and lived in Chipman. |

Very interesting site - and easy to use. Have been trying to find something about a relative - a John R Williams - who according to a short biography of him published in the USA - managed the "Ridgways (tea ??) store in Belfast" in the period 1898-1906. Didn't find him but did find a 'Ridgway' reference |

Ernest McCall Location: Northern Ireland Date: 06.12.2011 Time: 22:22:56 Rating: |
Hi, Re the "Lost Photo" section, chancellor Dublin, It appears to be part of the RIC Reserve Force during 1920/1. The Reserve Force is not the Black & Tans or Auxiliaries. The Reserve Force had a surgeon attached to them and the picture shows an ambulance which indicates that it may be the Reserve Force. The RF consisted of 2 x Sub Inspectors, 4 Head Constables, 200 men consisting of Sgts, Constables and Sub Constables. They travelled the length & breadth of Ireland helping local police in crowd control etc. An excellent site. |

Mary I moved to England in '94 and now live in north Wales. I loved your site. I enjoyed the snippets you post about your life. It seems that we have similar visitors to our gardens. But I wanted to say what a public service you perform by posting the street directories. Keep up the good work. I'm sure I'm not the only one to find these simple documents a real source of delight.

My grandparents on my mothers side (Savage) are from Belfast and I found their details on the 1911 census but not 1901. Having used your website I now know they were in Belafst in 1901 and indeed 1880 - really good news. Thank you. I just need to wait for updated census information assuming that it wasnn't destroyed. Your website is really very helpful. |

Hello, I have been researching my family history for a number of years now and I find your site excellent for cross referencing many of the facts and information. Incidently I actually have a Belfast Street Directory circa 1920/21. My father had it when I was a boy and I didn't realise it's use until I started researching the family. Thanks for your efforts. Regards Tony. |

I did find in your Tele. Book "Corporation of Londonderry". and the name Corscaden,E.F.,Mrs.........Could it be that is his wife ?.........He was single when i knew him...................As i stated before i associated with him while i was at the Navy Communication Station there...........I also rented an appsrtment in downtown Derry from him............We became great friends..........Really wish that i could contact him if he is still alive. I'l check out Corp. of Londonderry perhaps that will help.....Also if you could get any info as to his location it really would be greatly appriciated...Thanks, Al. York |
