23rd. August 2011 Ian McFarlane's son Andrew has a few requests - see e.mail below

Hello, my name is Andrew McFarlane and #10 Ian McFarlane is my dad, #16 Joan McFarlane is my aunt.  They lived at 32 Balfour Street (I think).
I was hoping you could help me.  My father Ian passed away in 1980 when I was 10.   I don’t know much about my dad, my mom Lenore McFarlane nee Cunningham from Belfast didn’t talk much about my dad or his family.
Could you tell me the year this photo was taken?
Could you put me in touch with Dennis Rose or Dennis Hollinger, please?  I’d like to see if they have any more pictures of my dad or the area.
One other point, I see a name was corrected by Jean Hagen nee Crockard.  My dad’s friend growing up was a Davey Crockard.  Would Jean Hagen be his sister?
And pics #1 and #2 were of John and David Harvey.  I know my Dad’s mother’s maiden name was Harvey.  Were these 2 Harve boys my Dad’s cousins?
I don’t think you’d be able to answer these questions, but could you please put see if I could contact Dennis Rose and Dennis Hollinger?
Thanks for your help.

This is Isabella McLaughlin in 1905. She was my grandmother. 

Her family knew her as Bella -  and she lived at 82 Church St with her father, Daniel McLaughlin and her mother Catherine (Kate) née Hendren. When she married Robert Gibson around 1914 she moved to 86 Balfour St.  Her father Daniel moved to 5 Balfour St. with his daughter Ann Jane (My mum always remembered him as being quite forbidding and keen on etiquette e.g.  jam had to be decanted to a glass dish with a silver spoon.)
When my grannie died in 1973 mum was given as an heirloom a gold locket that had inscribed on it John
Hendren to Jane Hendren. I have spent years looking for Jane Hendren to no avail. I have a copy of the marriage certificate for Daniel and Isabella which confirms John Hendren as Kate's father but doesn't mention her mother.
 
Between 1916 and 1925 Bella and Robert had 6 children - Isabel, Maureen, Kathleen, Bobby, Bill and Jo (my mum).

Below is a photo of her at the back of their house in Balfour St. around 1945 with 2 of her daughters  L-R  Kathleen and Isabel.
