Post by: davieboy on Thursday 17 April 25 18:34 BST (UK)
Hi

im looking for information on the Pinkerton family. The parents are William & Catherine (Neely) who were originally from Donegal / Londonderry.

There children were:
John b1874
Mary Jane b1876
Margaret b1880
Robert b 1885
Elizabeth b1885
Mathew b1887

Some of them are on the 1911 census living in Newtonards.

Any information of where they ended up would be appreciated

If you have access to ancestry check out this tree--lots of info--needs double checking.

Here's William Pinkerton, daughters Mary Jane (age 34) and Elizabeth Paul (age 15) living in Newtownards that you found in 1911 (please post links in the future to save us from searching for same information)-

This Elizabeth wasn't on your list of children.

In 1901 Catherine and children were here in Belfast-

This is likely William-

Going from census records the family seems to have moved around quite a bit.
