Title: Boyd Family
Post by: Richard Hudson on Monday 23 March 09 13:42 GMT (UK)
I am searching for details of the Boyd Family, who lived in 224 Upper Meadow Street from approx 1900-1945.
I would be very interested if anyone who knows how to search the Belfast Street Directories would tell me who was living there in this period, I am looking for Samuel Boyd (1855-1945), Samuel Boyd (1887-1933), Possibly Catherine Boyd,Margaret Boyd, Edith Boyd, John Boyd.
Several of the Boyds were buried in the Carmoney Cemetery, so if anyone knows how to access the burial data for this location it would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,

Richard.
