No record of anyone named John Twaddle born in what is now Northern Ireland in 1866. Searching 1864 ? 1868 I found one born in Coleraine on 24.1.1888, mother?s maiden name Hanna. (Though I suspect from the death records that he may have died in 1889).
There was a Hannah Jane Hilland marriage in Newtownabbey, 28th April 1899. Can?t see a birth registered for her.
You can view those certificates on-line for ?2 each, on the GRONI site, Use the search registrations option.
Is this your couple in 1901? (If so, John was from Leitrim. Not Antrim).

You can get a copy of John?s RIC service record from the PSNI museum in Belfast for ?25.

Can?t see a birth registered in Leitrim for him either though.
