This is a very valuable site. Thank you especially for the street directories. These are really excellent for tracing the movements or ancestors. I am tracing Smyth - Watters - Whitley - Scott families from Belfast.

Dear Sir, I am one of the great grand children of late Mr.Thomas Joseph Mackey who settled in Tavoy, Burma. According the family information carried from fathers to children, we know that our great grand father used to serve his militry service in Bore War (Africa). He married to a Tavoy Lady named Daw Aye and he died in 1931 in Tavoy, Burma. I would be very glad to have his information but I don't know where and how I could find. Thanks, James Thailand

Thanks to you Len, I have finally found a long lost relative in Antrim. Your website "Down Memory Lane" has made this all possible. I also found my great grandparents wedding details and their children. The Millar and Fleming families of Antrim are no longer "lost". Looking forward to any more relatives to make contact. A great site and I regularly visit to see what else is new.
Regards Ducie

The site is a great resource. I'm trying to access listings for Townsend Street from the period 1913 to 1950 any of the intervening years. I'm interested in specifically identifying the exact location of the Soho Foundry which is variously listed from 1843 to 1880.

My mother-in-law was Eileen Constance Chermside (she died this January aged 88 bless her). Unfortunately she was abandoned as a baby and was placed in foster care.
I have traced her father Thomas Arthur Fitzgerald Chermside born in Holywood 4-Feb-1869, whose father was William Dawson Chermside born Aug 1824 Belfast. His father was Thomas Martin Chermside born Aug 1792 who married Mary Dawson born 23 Jan 1799 at Shankill St Annes, Belfast. He was the co-founder of Drumaness flax spinning mill with William Davidson built 1850.
I'm struggling to find out more due to being an disabled (polio 56 years ago) and the paucity of N. Irish data.
That is why this site is so helpful - thankyou Lennon Wyle! If anyone can add anything to this history please email me.

Absolutely fantastic collation of all things relative to Genealogy in Belfast. My father left Belfast when he was 22yrs old for London. We have got things back to around 1834 but cannot find the marriage of my great great grandfather William Henry to Ellen Tyson.
I am coming over next month so may have more luck then
Great site well done !!!

Great site! Enjoyed finding Frank McCoy from the Galway postcard (although it took me away from my original intent! ) Researching wifes grandparents Michael Love (Derry and Belfast) and Alice O'Donnell (Dunfanaghy, Donegal and Belfast). Found both of their addresses in the street indexes and confirmed both lived in the same postal district in 1911. Bingo! Thanks a million! Kevin
