Title: Harper Family member
Post by: toddy on Monday 14 February 11 18:36 GMT (UK)
Trying to locate a birth for George Harper, son of Charles Harper and Sarah Harper (m/s Preloch?). He was born around 1899 in Belfast and married a Margaret McGill and had a son Charles who was born in Belfast? in 1920. ANY help or info on ANY of the details would be most appreciated.  ;D

Where did you get the age and birthplace of George Harper from? do you know Charles Harper's occupation? where and when would have Charles and Sarah gotten married?

Hi,
 I have found a marriage of George Harper to Margaret Magill on 11 Jun 1921 in North Belfast Methodist Mission. However the fathers were Thomas Harper and Charles Magill. I can also find a marriage of Thomas Harper to Annie Pollock on 26 Jun 1897 in Trinity Church of Ireland, Shankill, Belfast.

Regards

From what I can gather they moved over to Scotland after Charles was born,I got the details from his death certificate as he died here in 1996, His brother George was born in Glasgow in 1925.
