Was wondering if they were related further back

That link was to the war death record for William McClurg

The David Cowan Boyd and other child you couldn't place were the children who died from my Grandad first marriage to Jessie

Can't see that record because I don't have a subscription. Minnie McClurg got stabbed in January 1918 but didn't find anything in papers for William's death.

Ahh i see. its the death pension record for William McClurg created after the war

Royal Irish Rifles died 25th Sept 1915

Minnie is listed on it as Minnie Young and remarried and all the kids are listed

just notice Annies DOB is on it as 20th Feb 1909

thanks for all your help

Searched two different Belfast districts manually (page by page) but still no sign of Annie/Anna. Never found David's birth (c1903) either.
No match for William McClurg in CWGC database (I search just 'McClurg' and there aren't that many). No mention of an alias in pension record?
Which brings me back to Annie's birth. I think Army would have wanted proof that the wife was actually his wife and children were his children before paying out a pension. I have seen similar cases where children were listed then crossed out as they were step-children, etc. Minnie could, if needed, have submitted her marriage lines (we don't know outcome of bigamy allegation) but Annie was born in 1909 which is before the marriage in 1910.
