Hi

Is it the 'old' Pine St you want?  I may be wrong but I think the old houses have been knocked down and redevloped.

Hi Bo
I am not sure about that, I know my great granduncle lived there while he was at QUB in 1874, if that helps,
Many thanks

Hi again

I've a feeling that in 1974 the old houses were there.  I'm quite certain that it has since been redeveloped.  I don't know if you are familiar with Belfast Forum but it has a board specific to photos.  If you don't get help here you can request help on that forum.  Just google it. Good Luck  :)

I am researching the same ancestor in 1940's; Frederick Dunbar Livingston, if anyone has any information?

On earlier request, I came across will of " George Stewart Gillespie" from 1905 at this address, if of interest.
If link works, see:-

Hi. I realize I'm about a decade late replying to this post, but, in my search for my family's history I discovered my great-great grandmother lived at 37 Pine Street, also from 1912.  If you're still monitoring this site, I have just registered and will check frequently and would love the opportunity to share and gather any photos, stories, etc. with you that may further my research into the family's roots. Wonderful to see it's not such a big world after all!

Best to you.
