Thanks aghadowey, Trying to find any relatives of Hugh's siblings namely, Jane, James, John, Lizzie.
Jane married Thomas Johnston 1909 and had twins Dinah and Agnes 1911, Ballylisbraden
James also married an Agnes possibly McLarnon? 1903, 5 Dunlady Road, occupation agricultural labourer
John married agnes Kennedy 1909 and lived at 11 Greengraves Road, occupation Milkman
cant find Lizzie after 1901 census
and Hugh i think is my great grandfather who moved to Belfast and married Sarah cappa(er) in 1915.
Thanks

My great grandmother was Lizzie, she married a William McCormack from Belfast (though born in Glasgow). I don't know when they married as I cannot find a marriage certificate. They moved to Liverpool and had two sons and one daughter. She died in May 1981. I have several photos of her including a couple aged about 20

I wonder if mmcc can say which house is being referred to as "5 Dunlady Road" and in which townland it lay. My mother can recall the families living on Dunlady road between the wars, a number of which were recorded in the 1901 and 1911 censuses.

5 Dunlady Road doesn't make much sense but perhaps mmcc has taken the number on the 1911 census and assumed it was a street address.
1911- James and Agnes Lowry in Dunlady townland-

form B gives more detail on the location-

My apologies, Aghadowey. I should have thought to have looked up the census for Dunlady before commenting on this topic.
I have checked with my mother and these Lowrys in Dunlady are not a family that she remembers.
-
It's okay- easy to see how the previous post made it seem as though the address was 5 Dunlady Road.
-
That's right aghadowey, I assumed that it was 5 Dunlady Road. Is it then house no5 in the townland of Dunlady?

If you click on the link for form B that I posted earlier you will get the details for the property (townland, etc.).

Ok thanks.
