All you need to know about the camps is on here. At the site of each camp Ballymena Council have erected signs to show where the camp was as in some cases nothing remains of the camps. Others such as Dunaird stilll have the Nissan huts in place.

I happened to come across Camp 8 and 9 when I was hiding Geocaches, otherwise I would have known nothing of them.

There are quire a few camps just outside Broughshane,  for example :-

Dunaird N 54° 53.735 W 006° 10.782
Drummuck N 54° 53.928 W 006° 09.467

Children may have attended some of the rural schools in the area rather than hoing into Broughshane itself

US Lookup Requests / Westtown, Orange County, New York

Hi again  :)

I'm looking for information on Westtown Presbyterian Cemetery, New York.

My great aunt died in Westtown 21st April 1934. Her name was Margaret Ellen Clarke. Some forum members found records of her in the census before.

I am coming over to New York in 4 weeks time from Northern Ireland and planned a day trip to Westtown if it would be worthwhile.

Are there any searchable records of deaths or burials in this town

Regards

Andy

US Lookup Requests / Elizabeth Ann Clarke, New York

Hi Folks,

I've been building my family tree for 2 years now and have gathered much information about my family.

One member has been impossible to find out information on :

Elizabeth Ann Clarke
Born 19th May 1873, Ahoghill, Co. Antrim, Ireland
Died Sept 1952 New York (on her brother's headstone)

I cant find any immigration records or death records anywhere.

Any help or info would be appreciated.

Thanks for that.

What sort of era does the cemetery cover?

Rgds

Andy
