I’m looking for information on Samuel Young, born 11 November 1893 in Belfast.
His father was John Young, mother Bessie Lister (Lester).
Possibly immigrated to Canada, landing (Quebec) from 1920 onwards, after military service in WW1.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Does Mrs Jane Graham, 58 Dalhi Street. Belfast ring any bells ?

Thank you CanScot for your information, I’m going through marriages etc here in Ireland and I can’t find his marriage. His children don’t have any of the family names, so I don’t think this is my man ☹️
Thank you Sandra, again dates fit, I’ll do a bit of research on Jane Graham and see if I can get a connection.

Hi Sandra
His sister was Mary Jane Young and she married William Graham on the 10 September 1913.
We have no Census in Ireland after 1911, so I’ll go down the children route to get an address.
Is there a reason you mentioned her?
