According to my sister the child who died was s boy named David. But we thought lily was born on the 30th January 1916. We must be wrong. Is there any way I can get copies regarding William's attempted suicide.? Thanks once again.

Thank you so much for all Information regarding my relatives. My sister and I knew nothing g whatsoever about William duckett. My mother was born on the 16th August s couple of days after William's attempted suicide. It is so much appreciated all the hard work you must have put in. Will now try and find out how he ended up in Derry. Thank you . Sheila.

William duckett born in Bolton in 1873 died in Bolton. Married rose in Glasgow. His mother was Francis Delaney who came from Cork. How he ended up in Derry I have no idea. He died before I was born as did Rose. His father was also named William. We know nothing g about him or Rose. My mum died in the early seventies and she very rarely spoke about her parents.

Rose Ann young married a Robert Mooney who died in an accident. She had a son named Robert Robert junior died in 1st world war. She moved to Bolton Lancashire. Her eldest daughter Margaret Alice duckett married Henry bromiley in Bolton. Margaret and Henry were my parents. For some reason not known Robert Mooney stayed in Ireland with his grandmother.

I am trying to find more info on Sir James I know he served 2 terms as Lord Mayor of Londonderry from 1935-39 and that he was knighted by the King at Stormont in 1937. I am unsure when he died and where he is buried. Does anybody know how old he was when he was Lord Mayor. Are there any pictures of him anywhere. I think he is my Great Grandmothers nephew. Thanks for any help you can give.
