Thomas Graham d 1872 aged 33yrs Belfast Registration
« on: Saturday 18 June 22 04:45 BST (UK) »


Belfast Newsletter 29 July 1872 has a death notice, "Graham-July 28 at 3 Steammill Lane, Gamble Street, Belfast, Thomas Graham, aged 33 years".  No parents, nothing more.

Ancestry has Civil Reg Death Index 1872 for Thomas.

LDS have nothing, have traced the film number from Family Search and Ancestry at their local research centre

Irish Gen has nothing for him and I wondered where to go next to establish more detail.

Also have his possible mother, Mary Graham, similar issue.
Belfast Telegraph 22 January 1886. "Graham-January 21 at Budore, Mary wife of Joseph Graham"

Nothing on Irish Gen or Ancestry. Any ideas on next step?

Many thanks

Thanks so very much, Mary Graham is the one, son Robert's address correct and he's present at death.

I have tried all combinations of Graham but never would have tried "Ge..."

This could help with other missing Graham family.

Thomas, I will keep looking, but now I know he was married.

I am SO pleased!  Another little mystery solved, thanks again.

Great it's the correct Mary.
Try using G*ham and you should cover most possibilitys, although for Thomas I just left the surname blank and brought up all Thomas in Belfast than scrolled through the ages.

Possible marriage for Thomas - a dealer. The death informant was Lavery.
