Gary, George Dynes (born 1893) was my great Uncle. He joined the Royal Irish Rifles and was wounded in the battle of Mons in 1914.  He married Emily Goddard in Dover in 1912 and had about 13 children. Emily died in 1939 and he remarried to Lillian Homes in 1949. He passed in 1961 (rip) I think I have a photo of him so just let me know. Kind regards Dan

Kiltaglassin, .....first of all thank you so much for the information that you have provided in more ways than one because I have previously incorrectly used Newtownards as the registars district on previous irishgeneology enquiries. So the information is very new to me although I was aware that Martha Dines (my great Aunt) married a John Kennedy who was killed in WW1 (rip) There is a John Kennedy named on the Killyleagh war memorial which I have always taken to be him.  Coming back to the information in respect to Mary Dines theres a bit of a question mark given her marriage to James Quinn in St Marys RC church and I note no Dines named as a witness and her father is identified as William Dines? A mixed marriage maybe ? Thank you again. Dan

Hi Kim, Good to finally catch up. So George Dines (born 1805) is my 4th times grandparent on my paternal side. As you say he was a bailiff. PRONI unfortunately do not keep any bailiff listings/records. If you look on the familysearch website George's Dines surname is spelt Deines. The spelling could denote a German or Aberdeenshire origin or a phonetic origin. As previously advised the Church of Ireland records Killinchy refer to a Mary Deines of Bangor so I suspect a family link. The Dines/Dynes family tree is on Ancestry  which  was done by a cousin some time ago which I was never able to add too because of a lack of records. My dna results are also on that site.(I dont suppose ?)  At the moment I am trying to collate information provided from a number of sources which I will place on this site.  I am impressed by the generous response from the Rootschat forum which I appreciate very much. I live in the Noosa area Sunshine Coast. Will stay in touch. Kind regards Dan

Thank you for the information Sam and Kiltaglassan. I do have my great Uncles information for both Thomas and Alexander Dynes (rip)who were in the Royal Irish Rifles and were killed in the great war. Let me just wish everybody a merry Christmas and a healthy and safe New Year and many thanks again for everybodys advice and information. Will start the New Year with renewed vigour.  Kind regards.

Thank you Sam....... much appreciated,.... Margaret Deins(?) of Bangor is confirmed on the C OF i burial records aged 74 years. Interestingly my direct Dines family lived on Irish Street Killyleagh upto 1911.  When two of my great Uncles were killed in the 1914/1918 war the pension record referred to the family at one point living at Brownlow Street Comber before moving to Newtownards. So there may well be a family connection to the Comber Dines's which is only app 4 miles from Newtownards.

First of all many thanks particularly to gaffy and kiltaglassan for their comments ...its really appreciated. That information in time will I am sure will open up valuable lines of enquiry. . This is a great site. My proni  enquiry re Church of Ireland Killinchy records for my 4th times grandfather George Dines was inconclusive. I am not sure he wants to be found. However there are a number of Dines names recorded which may help join some of the dots to my Northern Ireland  family and this will be the subject to further research. I am happy enough to provide a copy of the available C OF I records but I dont think i can download to this message. If anybody wants me to just download the names I am more than happy to do so.

Thank you so much for the information on George Dines of Killinchy. Irishgeneology is a great site. I had looked on familysearch at the Presbyterian church records Killinchy which starts from 1835. There is no mention of George Dines which may not be a total surprise. On Ros Davies Down web site there is the following........  George   DEINES/DEINS/ DINES Killinchy   husband of Mary ; father of George bpt. 30 Nov 1828 & Robert bpt. 14 Aug 1831 & Robert (sic) bpt. 6 Jan 1833 & Alexander bpt. 28 May 1843 at Killinchy Church of Ireland. Although the notation is still unclear the Church of Ireland killinchy records for marriages and burials are only from 1819 to 1876  so this may not provide any useful information.Will see what comes out of my proni enquiry which I will pass on in due course. Thank you again .

Oz Kim,..Hi Kim,..... George Dines and Mary Hennesey are my 3 times grandparents. Interestingly George is purported to have been a Bailiff in the Ballydorn / Killinchy area....so maybe not to popular  I have been trying to trace him back for a number of years. I suspect that he may have attended the Church of Ireland  and not a pressy church. Strangely enough and by sheer coincidence I am presently trying to confirm that information through PRONI . Will  advise when I get a reply from them ...and yes I also live in Australia. Will stay in touch. Dan
