Sorry didn't see the rest of the replies there. 
Thanks everyone for the info. 
Ros you have definately solved the mystery, Mary jane must have been married to the Peter the son, because Peter the alderman died in 1917.  Does the JP stand for justice of the peace or do you think thats suppossed to be JR? 
Just wish i had the money to visit Sydney there seems to be lots of terrific places to visit that are connected with my family. 
Thanks again!

Hi Ros,
would appreciate that.  There was some confusion because in the sydney biographes of their aldermen, they mention a possible marriage between Peter senior and Mary Jane Smith but it wasn't confirmed.  I looked it up on the NSW BDM and they have a marriage between Peter and Mary listed but it ddn't give all the details.  I was just hoping someone has more info or had free access to those records

Could some kind person look some info up for me if they have access.  Mary Jane Smyth married Peter francis hart in Sydney in 1900.  But im not sure if she married Peter F Hart Jr born in 1867 or his dad Peter Francis Hart born Belfast 1840. i just need details of the grooms age and father and mother, that will solve a big mystery for me.

Canada / Hart/Devlin Belfast to Montreal

HI there!
Does anyone else have a Devlin or Hart in their tree that came from Belfast in the late 1800s or early 1900.  Some of my Hart's moved to montreal in the 1900s but came back to Belfast.  It is believed they went over to stay with family members that were already over there.  Peter, john, Catherine, Edward are just some of the names that repeat in each generation.  Most of them were Carpenters, builders.  They have a strong connection with the Devlin family who are also thought to have went over with them.  They are Roman Catholic.

Hey there
Just spotted this old post, are you still researching this family?  If so i may be able to help.  My Gran was O' Hanlon and this is definately her family.  The James that Married Martha Russel would be her brother.  Her dad was also called James O'Hanlon, he married a Sarah Graham around 1900 and i think they lived in Stanhope Street.

Hi Debbie,
Thanks for doing all that work, i found the websites after i posted the message, doh!  But you managed to find photo's that's terrific and a list of children.  A great start for me!
If anyone reading this has any connection with these names, give me a shout.  Once again thanks Debbie and if you need any look ups in Belfast give me a shout.

Hi there,
I would really appreciate if someone with access to free info could look stuff up for me.  I'm from belfast and discovered i have a number of relatives who moved to Sydney australia around late 1850s early 1860s  I know one of them peter francis hart was an alderman in the Sydney council in the 1870s and 1880s and was a property developer.  I also know he had a brother (don't know name) who moved from belfast with him.  Both would have born late 1830s and early 1840s and both would have been in the carpentry building trade.
