Hi Answer,

Thanks for your interest in my query.
I found an old postcard of Glenada Terrace and it is just right of the streetview  on Promenade that you sent in the link.  They are  pale yellow coloured buildings.  They have a very distinctive roofline.  The roof and front are the same as the old postcard.

Now I just need to find Hugh and Gertrude HENRY's house number from a city directory in the 1920s.

Thanks again!

Hi,
   This looks like the same property that is shown in my second link in reply No.1. The current address is 29, South Promenade, Newcastle, Co. Down.

It may be that there was no house number for the property until fairly recently (say 30 years ago or so) around the time road names were introduced in the countryside.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
