Antrim / Re: Allingham and Morton
« on: Friday 17 February 12 21:02 GMT (UK) »
Hi Carol,
I don't have anything on his military background. His occupation was a doorman for a hotel in Belfast. He had eight children with Margaret Morton, four sons, John, Robert (my father), Edward and William. William was killed in WW11 his plane was shot down over Germany. I am unaware of any of them being born in South Africa, perhaps from his first marriage. The daughters names were Isobel, Ester, Madge and Betty (Elizabeth).
I only know of two daughters from his first marriage interested to hear if indeed there were more children from that marriage.
I have information about his death and why he was in a mental hospital if you care to know. This is information I would prefer not to share in public.
As soon as I learn how to send a picture I will send it to you.
Your distant cousin Bob.

I would appreciate any information about my great great uncle Robert Allingham, born 1869 (in Sligo). He joined the Royal Irish Rifles. By 1911 he was a widower and living in Belfast. He had four children and worked as a commissionaire. Does anyone know what this job would entail? He married his second wife Margaret Morton in 1915; I believe she was from Salford, Lancashire.
Thanks for any help
Carol
