I am trying to trace my Grandmothers family from Ireland. Her family made Jews/Jaws Harps in Dublin and Belfast in the late 1800's.They also had a foundry, I believe in Dublin ( Church Street ) where they made Manhole covers. Those are still visible in Dublin and will have SHARKEY cast on the surface. If anybody has information on either the Jews Harps or Manhole covers, please Contact me vie email: bootneck58@ comcast.net
Thank you Dave

Stumbled on your page looking for information on my grandparents who emigrated from Belfast to Connecticut in 1923. Once I started to get hits I called up my 88 y.o. aunt who made the trip in utero. She found a decaying address book that matched up well with the street directories. I will find period photos of my grandfather William Bristow (2 Bn R.I.R.) and Thompson Bristow (KIA Cambrai, 1917.. one of the Shankill Road Boys) and post them to your WWI site.

Many thanks for this site, I found people I was looking for in the Campbell College list. I was disappointed that number 441, brother of others I was interested in, is not in the list (neither are number 439 or 440). But my excitement was much more than my disappointment, thanks a lot.

I too have a commemorative bronze roundel for Col Robert Beech mounted in green onyx, so thank you for giving me the correct name and dod. I only bought it today in a local antique shop purely for the poignancy of its inscription and that it was no longer loved as the man it remembers had once been.

Thank you for this great site. My brickwall is Mrs Elsie Hood (can't find maiden name) who lived according to my Great Aunt's Will, at 23 Northwood Street Belfast in 1953. I'm guessing Elsie was born somewhere between 1910 - 1930!! Have any of you Belfast people heard of a Hood family, that might help me, please, or have any suggestions on where I should look?
