In reply to a recent message regarding Arthur John Pickford, I have also recently realised he could be related to the actress Mary Pickford which I had previously dismissed. He was also my great grandfather and my grandmother was his youngest daughter, Ethel, May Pickford.
I have previously tried to research this ancestry and came to a dead end as there appear to be a lack of records for Ballyduff at this time. As Pickford is not a known Irish name and the town is small I was also intrigued to know that Mary Pickford took her paternal grandmother's name who came from Ballyduff.
Would be really keen to know anything further.
