Hi, Vicki,
If you have been in contact with Richard McLean I don't know what else I might be able to add, not knowing how much info he has given you. I am descended from Daniel via his grandson, Sydney Hugh McClean and I am therefore Richard's second cousin once removed (I think). I noted with interest your mention of the Trimbles and I have a couple of photos in my computer files showing Ethel Trimble, Mrs Rutter (her sister) and Margaret Trimble, noted as the late Pesey Trimble's daughter, a chap identified only as "me" and Ellen. "Me" looks like someone in another photo identified as John B Kinship. I've absolutely no knowledge of these people and would appreciate your information. I have numerous photos of someone's time in Ireland and would be happy to email them across as I have difficulty with this website.
regards, Warren McLean

Sorry Sally, I just had an email from Richard to say you are his cousin's wife, so you probably know as much as each other.

Hi Sally,
I thought I had posted this reply yesterday but, being new to the site, I must have pushed a wrong button somewhere.

I am descended from Daniel McClean, as a great great great grandson, via William Nevin/Marianne Browne. They had 3 children, Sarah Leila Elizabeth (born in Belfast), Frederick Orr (born in Melbourne, Aus., birthname William De Wilton) and, my great grandfather, Sidney Hugh (born in Sydney, Aus., birthname William Hugh). By an extraordinary coincidence I had lunch yesterday with another of Daniel's descendants, a Richard MacLean whose great great grandfather was Frederick Orr MacLean. It was our first face to face meeting and we, naturally, discussed our families' lineage, which is how I stumbled across your post in this site, searching the net for "Breda Lodge" in Belfast.  Sarah and her husband John Charles Lovell owned a Breda Lodge in Croydon, NSW. However, Richard has a much greater knowledge of our Family history than I do and I have sent him a link to your post. You will undoubtedly hear from him sooner rather than later and he may have the answer you were looking for in your original post.
