lookup in Portaferry or Donaghadee
« on: Tuesday 03 March 09 17:05 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for James Davis born Portaferry Co Down 1864, according to UK 1911 census. Father was George Davis harbourmaster/customs officer/coastguard.
Previously had James possibly from donaghadee.
moved to UK in 1860's I think, and married there.
Could anyone lookup anything for me please.

could this Davies be connected ?

from Slater's commercial directory of 1846 in the Donaghadee section :

Public Institutions, &c.
Coast Guard - Capt. Arthur Macgregor Skinner, inspecting commander ;
 Lieut. John Henry Davies, R. M. harbour master.
