I don't think they weren't in Belfast for the 1911 census, but went after that. I have 135 vernon street Belfast mentioned on a death certificate (1919). I want to check how long they lived there. So I need some with a belfast street directory.

But thanks for checking kingerswell.

1901, 1907, 1908, 1910 & 1918 are on line on Lennon Wylie. Mary Gillespie appears at 135 in 1918 only. There was also a GW Gillespie at 27 in 1910. Occupation bread server.

That's great Elwyn. Mary Gillespie is who I was looking for. Has anyone got a 1914 or after 1918 directory so I can track her movements. She married in 1919 ( I think joseph hamill)


Thanks

David

Thanks that information, that's great. It ties in with what I have. I now want to know how long Mary was in the house on vernon street. I know she was in derry in 1911 and 135 vernon street in 1918. So I am trying to find out when she moved to Belfast.
