I am still trying to find info on Eliza Heyburn born ? 1838 and died 1906. Her father was Samuel Heyburn a seaman in Groomsport. I would also like to find siblings. Ann Heyburn was a witness at her wedding to Robert Strain  1870 at the Parish church in Bangor.

Thanks

Thank you for all your info .I will try all the links.
My family all grew up in Newtonards and surrounding areas . My grandfather came to Scotland to live. I had never heard of Bullys Acre till I phoned the Ards Council looking for info. We are coming over to Bangor in two weeks time and are hoping to find lots of info re my ancesters.
I would be pleased to see what you manage to find out about Bullys Acre as it sounds a very sad place to end up.

She died from cancer of the rectum which she seems to have had for 18mths according to death certificate. A apparently if someone died in the workhouse the council do not keep records. I hope to go and visit the area in 2 wks time when I visit Ireland.
Thank you

Thank you for info which hopefully will be helpful. Eliza was on the 1901 census staying in Ballyhay so must have gone into workhouse after that date . I will try PRONI.
Many thanks

Eliza Strain died in workhouse Newtonards in 1906.  Where would I find any info on records from the workhouse and also of Bullys Acre Newtonards, where she may have been buried.
Do you know the location of Bullys Acre? It sound a very sad place.

Thank you
