Hi all.

I came across the following from an old book dealing with Belfast, which some of you might find interesting:

In Old Belfast: Memories of a Great-Great- Grandfather (1740-1760) by L.R.Crescent.

[Belfast, Printed by W.& G. Baird, Limited, Royal Avenue, 1924.]

Re: 1756 Hunger Riots in Belfast:

James Fish, John M’Mullan, Paul Alexander, Daniel M’Neil, Joseph Hollinger, John M’Crory, Patrick McGladdery, William Warnock, William Venables (in custody), Samuel Dinnen, John M’Mechan, George Bryan, Daniel M’Fee, and George Taylor.’’(page 74).

Hi Jim
I've only just found out yesterday that my g g grandmother was Jane
Hollinger
who married William Kerr and was mother of Robert and (I believe) John
Kerr. The only Jane I can find was in Aghavary, but I will have to do a
lot of research before I can verify this.
Keep in touch

Hi Donna
Can you run your query past me? I'm also looking for Hollingers about this
date in or around Belfast. In particular the family of one Jane Hollinger
my gg grandmother whose alliance (no proof of marriage as yet) with a Wm
Kerr, produced at least 2 sons Robert Cameron Kerr b 1860 (my g
grandfather)
and John. John emigrated to Canada around 1880/90.

No I have not written to the Irish Hollingers

I just got our geneology page on the web, at the address below. Our
Hollinger line, and probably yours as well, started in Hovil Bonisvil in
Canto Argaau outside of Zurich

Subject: [IP] Waschow/warshaw/

HI: This group helped me greatly with hollingers. I now have a man named David
Waschow (Warshaw) who first appears in Mississippi in 1826, is naturalized in Adams
Co MS in 1828. He appears in the Census of 1840 in Franklin County Ms and died in
1844. He was close to Lewis Michael Hollinger; he had no children and left his
estate to Hollinger.

Does this name ring a bell with anyone? I know that he spoke German; he owned land
and was a merchant. Is this a likely Palatine name? Bavarian? any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated. Kate

=======

I'm looking for William Hollinger, b. Down, possibly Newtownards, May 15, 1815. He and wife, Margaret Anne Duell, b. Ireland, Nov. 12, 1820, migrated to Canada about 1842. Samuel is a recurring name in this family. Do you have any ancestors for your Samuel?
