Trying to trace family
Hi from New Zealand. My grandfather was from Belfast. Ive managed to track records via ancestry.com with his siblings, but none of that is helping me find any of their kids or kids kids.
What I have been able to tell is some of his siblings stayed in Northern Ireland and passed away, there some in Belfast.
My granddad was Josiah Hegan. His siblings were:
Thomas
Ellen
Emma
Mary a.k.a Molly- I have been able to locate a possible married name of Mary Coard who passed in 2011
Iris
Isabel
Robert
William
George- I know had a record called Sure And They're Irish Songs By George! But this was recorded in Australia.
My granddad worked at Harland & Wolff before coming to NZ.
His parents were Josiah Hegan and Ellen Cairns
I dont know much else. If anyone knows a place I may be able to get information or as a long shot be related to me I'd love to find out more about them.
