I was in Belfast last month looking for some cousins there. They would be related to the Griffin family, Catherine, Adam, Mary and Rose that lived at 11 Crocus St from 1890-1929. Jackson family from Dromore Co. Down. The Griffin amily was from Ballymena. Also the relatives of Mary and Gerald Falloon and Lena Milligan. I know my grandmotherborn in Belfast) used to go back to Ireland to visit relatives in Ballymena.
Looking for cousins from Belfast, Griffin, Jackson, Falloon, Miligan?
i used the white pages listing (on the internet) in each city to find people with the surname i was researching - then phoned %26amp;/or wrote letters to everyone on my list.
I was able to find many extended family members.
i also posted queries on genealogy bulletin boards such as rootsweb, ancestry.com, cyndis list, and as many others i could find
Reply:You'd get a lot wider exposure at the surnames and places message boards at ancestry.com, rootsweb.com, maybe genforum.com with your query.
