  • Hi Col.

    Annie Black was born 1884, she died in 1960 in Victoria Australia, her father was James Black born 1839 in County Tyrone Ireland and died 14 December 1871, wife is not known?, James's father was David Black? born 1874 no death date, David's wife is Mary Black? b 1878, no death date either.

    Any information regarding this family plus photos and/or and Documents would go a long way to closing this part of my family tree.

    Thank you for your help in this.

    Your's Sincerely.

  • Hi Julie
    Had a look on ancestry but no luck!
    Happy to stay in touch - I am in Oz too (Safety Beach NSW).
    Some of the volunteers use the GRO site (Gov Records Office)
    Also for N I records try geni.nidirect.gov.uk (credits required) I tried to look but it is having maintenance at the moment.
    There's also findmypastireland (credit required) which has these:
    Black James 1836 1869 1869 Irish Deaths 1864 - 1958 Dungannon, Tyrone, Ireland (none with 1871 death)
