Hi, I'm interested in these people listed in the 1901 Irish Census:
1901 Irish Census: 11 Gaffkin Street, Belfast, Antrim:
Sarah Henry family head Presbyterian R&W 60/1841 widow B Co Down.
Eliza Henry daughter Presbyterian R&W 28/1873 Weaver cotton single B Co Down.
Robert Henry son Presbyterian R&W 36/1865 Yarn-dresser married B Co Down.
Susan Henry daughter in law Presbyterian R&W 30/1871 Weaver cotton married B Co Down.
Minnie Henry grand daughter Presbyterian R&W 10/1891 Scholar single B Co Antrim.
Susan Henry grand daughter Presbyterian R&W 8/1893 Scholar single B Co Antrim.
Sarah Henry grand daughter Presbyterian R 6/1895 Scholar single B Co Antrim.
Lilly Henry grand daughter Presbyterian 4/1897 single B Co Antrim.
Florance Henry grand daughter 2/1899 single B Co Antrim.
James Henry grand son Presbyterian 6months/1900 single B Co Antrim.
This Robert Henry I believe married Susanna/Susan Davison/Davidson in 1886 Belfast. His father on the marriage record was a Waltham Henry. They are listed on the 1911 Irish Census living at 17 Eccles Street, Shankill, Antrim, with their 11 children, But Robert is calling himself Robert Samuel Henry...
I believe I have found Sarah Henry his mother and Eliza Henry in the 1911 Irish Census:
1911 Irish Census: 19 Orkney Street, Shankill, Antrim:
Eliza Henry head of family Presbyterian R&W 45/1866 Damask Weaver single B Co Down.
Sarah Gracey mother Presbyterian 76/1835 single B Co Down.
Sarah Gracey died in 1918 at 8 Orkney Street, Belfast aged 84/1834. There are two records (one crossed out) which indicate she may have been the widow of a W Gracey. The informant was a Susan Henry of 33 Eccles Street. I have not found her burial.
S Gracey was the informant at two of the births of Robert & Susan Henry: Mary Jane/Minnie in 1890 and Anne Elizabeth/Lily in 1897.
Some of Robert & Susan's children emigrated to the USA in the 1920's.
I cannot find any trace of Eliza Henry; nor Robert and Susan Henry. Maybe they went to USA also?
The best birth record I can find for Robert Henry is this:
1864 Irish Birth: Pontzpas, Newry, County Armagh: Page 921/02318578 No.89:
Twenty Second November 1864 Kilrea Robert Wilham? male Fa John Henry, Farmer, Kilrea Mo Sarah Henry formerly Dillon informant John Henry Kilrea Father registered May Third 1865.
Best wishes,
Paul.
