The surrounding area has been substantially redeveloped, but Copperfield Street ran parallel to Duncairn Gardens from Edlingham Street (still here) to Adam Street (gone), it can be found using the PRONI historical maps viewer:

The 1924 and 1932 Belfast street directories on the Lennon Wylie website show the same name for that address, ie.:

20. Stewart, Wm., plater

A 1938 Belfast newspaper "in memoriam" notice placed by the husband of Agnes Barbour Stewart who died on 29 December 1933 (of that address) also mentions a daughter and son-in-law Dinah and William Campbell.

Which reads back to this daughter Dinah born in 1903 to a plater William Stewart and Agnes Barbour:

And a later son James Stewart born in 1910 to the same couple at 20 Copperfield Street:

The marriage of William Stewart and Agnes Barbour in 1898:

Sorry if I didn't make it clear what I wanted to know .
I found a photograph of a lady  on the back is written Lillie  dated 2/4/1927 with address of 20 copperfield street. I know my great grandfather lived there I was wondering who lived there with him at that date so we could put a name to photograph
