Hi Scotsmum,

A very kind lady from the GR site came up with that information for me and a very helpful lady called Briege from this forum confirmed those details by checking the Mary Lennon street directory which came up with Charles's profession and had him working at the exchange buildings in 1907.

Prior to receiving this information from the lady from Genes Reunited i only had details on my great grandfather Edmond who was Charles's Son and she unexpectedly provided me with information on his parents and siblings which started me on the route to research Charles life.

Hi Aghadowey,

Thank you for your message.
Did you have much luck tracing details of your ancestors from their trade?
I am starting to realise that (as you said) due to the amount of firms involved in the tea trade i think i may have a hard time tracing my gg grandfather's proffession.
But i am keeping my fingers crossed!

Hi,

I am looking for some information on the relatives of Edmond Doherty dob 30/04/1892,belfast.
I have the baptism record for his daughter Ann doherty (Anna on the certificate) and noticed that her Godparents were called George and Anna Doherty so must be relations to Edmond.
I would really appreciate it if anyone is able to research this family link.
Thank you in advance for your time
Emily

Hello,

I thought i would see if anyone could help me on this thread.
I am looking for some information on the profession of my gg grandfather.
His name was Charles Doherty and he was a Tea Dealer in Belfast i have him as working at 1 Exchange Buildings,Waring street in Belfast in 1907.
Also if anyone can confirm the profession of his son Joseph Doherty dob 1883 that would be great,  i have quite a few possibilites for him... stone cutter,tailor, rope spinner or grocer.
Any help greatly appreciated
Thank you
