Hello.hi my name is madeline silo my dad was james silo and my grandad was Modesto im not to good at all this my e mail is (*)
I read with interest, your message.
My name is Gerard Silo-Gorman.
I was born in Belfast and my grandfather was George Louis Silo, born Belfast 1st September 1905. I have the original birth certificate, given to me, by my mother.
My great-grandfather was, Modesto Silo and his younger brother was also named George Louis Silo 1800s. I can only presume, my grandfather, was named after him.
Both Modesto and his younger brother George Louis, played football, for the famous Belfast team "Glentoran" at Belfast's Ormeau Park.
They get a mention, in the book written about Glentoran and there is a portrait of George Louis as well.
Please feel free, to contact me.
Gerry.
