Title: Street Directory
Post by: nikolabailie on Monday 05 July 10 15:50 BST (UK)
64 Ravensdale Street Belfast, Can anyone tell me who was there? Does it give a list of all at the address, Ideally I am looking for a "William Bailie". Anywhere between 1911 and 1957! Very random sorry!

Hi,
   The 1911 census shows a Bailie family at no. 44 Ravensdale St but there is no William.

How strange, does it have them as boot merchant or anything like that?

Ah just thought I know he was in Monaghan in 1911, Street directory might be better to find answers!

Hi,
   No, Father is a general labourer and one daughter is a bag printer and another is a bag cutter. Other children are still at school.

Regards

Hi,
   I noticed in the 1911 census that William John and Susan had been married for less than 1 year and were described as Presbyterian. The census was conducted on 2 April 1911 and I have found a marriage of a William John Bailie and Susanna Montgomery in Comber 2nd Presbyterian Church, Newtownards on 27 April 1910. Don't know if this is revelant.

Regards
