Cardwell and McAteer family
« on: Tuesday 11 January 11 17:31 GMT (UK) »
Hi All
Searching for a relative's family. Mother was Maureen Alberta Cardwell born 1921 in Co Tyrone, father Alexander Cardwell and mother Elizabeth Frances McAteer. They married in 1897.His father was named as Alexander Cardwell and hers as William McAteer. I think Elizabeth was born in Dunamorey in 1878 but can't find out when Alexander was born Anyone with any links or information,I'd be most grateful.
Thanks Kate Annie

Here's Alexander Cardwell and family in 1901 census- age listed as 26 so born c1875.
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Tyrone/Dungannon/Broole_Street/1739715

Here's the family in 1911- now age 40 so born c1871 and Methodist rather than Church of Ireland-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Antrim/St__Anne_s_Ward/Tavanagh_Street/161130

One possible birth in IGI (www.familysearch.org)-
Alexander Cardwell born 6 Sept.1871 Co.Tyrone- parents Alexander Cardwell and Margaret Ann Hamilton

This might also be the correct Alexander: Cardwell Alexander of 3 Dhu-Varren Crescent Belfast hacklemaker died 10 December 1936 Administration Belfast 1 February to Alexander Cardwell greaser. Effects £150.
see www.proni.gov.uk
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Thanks to both of you. My relative was adopted at birth so all information received with thanks and some trepidation!
