  • Young Citizen Volunteers 10Th September 1912 the Young Citizen Volunteers
    Young Citizen Volunteers 10th September 1912 The Young Citizen Volunteers Introduction Lance-Corporal Walter Ferguson , aged 24, of 14th Royal Irish Rifles died (according to the website of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission) on 8 July 1916, although the marble tablet erected in All Saints Parish Church, University Street, Belfast, by his sorrowing father states he was ‘killed in action on 1 July 1916’. It seems very probable that he died a slow and possibly painful death from wounds sustained on 1 July and in captivity because he is buried in Caudry Old Communal Cemetery which was then in German-held territory. Walter’s family did not learn of his death immediately. They sought news of him in the Belfast Evening Telegraph of 18 July 1916: No news has been received regarding L’ce Corporal Walter Ferguson (14596) YCVs since before the Big Push and his relatives, who reside at 2 Collingwood Road, Belfast, are very anxious about him and would be grateful for any information. In civil life he was a bookbinder … News from the Front often trickled home agonizingly slowly. For example, the Northern Whig of 27 July 1916 reveals another Belfast family anxious to learn the fate of their son, also a lance-corporal in 14th Royal Irish Rifles and a member of the YCV: Revd John Pollock (St Enoch’s Church), 7 Glandore Park, Antrim Road, will be glad to receive any information regarding his son Lance-corporal Paul G Pollock, scout, Royal Irish Rifles (YCV), B Company, who had engaged in the advance of the Ulster Division on 1st July last, and has been ‘missing’ since that date.

  • William Mcfadzean VC Memorial Stone Consultation Summary
    William McFadzean V.C. Memorial Stone Consultation Summary (Draft 2) William McFadzean V.C. Memorial Stone Consultation Update 31/8/2016 1. Purpose 1.1 The purpose of the report is to provide an update and summary note to the members of the East Belfast Working Group to assist and inform their decision making process. 2. Background 2.1 The East Belfast Working Group agreed in September 2015 to consider a request from the William McFadzean Victoria Cross Commeration Committee to support the installation of a memorial stone to commerate the contribution and bravery of Mr William McFadzean awarded the Victoria Cross during WWI. 2.2 As Mr Mc Fadzean had a local connection, living for part of his life on the Cregagh Road, it was suggested by the Group that it would be both fitting and timely if a memorial stone could be installed to coincide with repair work done on a small piece of ground or turning circle, adjacent to his former residence on the Cregagh Road. 2.3 The stone and installation was also considered timely as it would be part of a United Kingdom Initiative, overseen locally by the N.I WWW Centenary Committee Office to support the laying of stones, with a uniform design in a location that would have resonance with the V.C. recipient and be visible to the public. This is part of a national initiative to install permanent memorials to 400 recipients of the Victoria Cross, including eight from Northern Ireland. The stones proposed are relatively small measuring 600x600x50mm 2.4 Following representation to the working group the Council agreed to undertake a short consultation exercise to gauge the level of community interest and support for the initiative.

  • Collegians-Rugby-Football-Club
    COLLEGIANS RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB 1890— 1990 by PIERRE PAUL FRY Published by Collegians Rugby Football Club, Belfast, and printed by Nelson & Knox (N.I.) Ltd. BELFAST: 1989 it FOREWORD One does not proceed very far into the research on Collegians Rugby Football Club without realising the depth and the degree to which Collegians owes its survival and existence to the generosity and benevolence of Charles Seaver Neill. Collegians is synomonous with Charlie Neill. Appropriately, the present pavilion at Deramore Park is a tangible memorial to him. It was my privilege to have known him and to have played rugby at Collegians when he was very much the dominating personality. When you met him you saw either the obvious gentleman with old world charm and courtesy or a man with commanding presence, he was over six feet tall and straight in stature, forbidding, even autocratic, but whichever mood he was in you may be sure that underneath his exterior was a most sympathetic and understanding nature. In conversation when he was invariably extolling the virtues of Collegians, he spoke with a distinct, pulsating and passionate voice. Charlie Neill was the great Collegian. I wish to thank many people and sources from which I have had assistance in the compilation of this work. My first acknowledgement must be made to the Belfast Newsletter, the Belfast Telegraph, the Ireland's Saturday Night, the Northern Whig, the Linenhall Library and the Central Library for permission to use their files for reports and results of matches. My thanks are also due to the Methodist College, Belfast for access to its archives, mainly for the records of the early years.

  • Researching and Sharing Edgar Family History No. 64, May 2012
    EEEvvveeennntttsss Researching and sharing Edgar family history No. 64, May 2012 DNA Update by James Edgar ([email protected]) On the DNA front, we have some exciting news—Steve Edgar in DeLeon Springs, Florida, who directly descends from the Rev. Robert Edgar, b. 1840 in Rathfriland, Co. Down, Northern Ireland is an I2b1. What makes this special is that we’ve hunted for many years to find someone who is descended from a Rathfriland Edgar who could do a DNA test, and Steve is the first! In addition to that, we’ve made a connection between Mary Nell Snoddy in Nashville, Tennessee, and Steve in Florida—they’re cousins. She sent some pictures of his and her ancestors, which we’ll include as an Old Geezer photo later on. Steve and his family are related to a whole load of new cousins… With the exception of Leslie Edgar of Maryport, England, Steve’s new close relations all trace their ancestry to Northern Ireland! It’s not clear at the left because the locations don’t show up well; here’s how it should appear for the first few: Stephen Edgar—DeLeon Springs, Florida Wayne Edgar—Michigan (Tim’s father, Angela Reed’s cousin, and Jason’s cousin) John V. Edgar—Richland, Washington Jason Edgar—North Bay, Ontario John Murray Edgar—South Africa Jim Edgar—Kyle, Saskatchewan John Edgar—British Columbia, Canada Mike Edgar—Moneyreagh, Northern Ireland Leslie Edgar—Maryport, England Ian Edgar—Belfast, Northern Ireland John Edgar—Coal City, Illinois Corey Edgar—Toronto, Ontario Jack Edgar—Dallas, Texas Jim Edgar—Pine Mountain, Georgia See the family influence in Fordyce, Arkansas—the “main drag” is named Edgar Street! http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&q=edgar+st,+fordyce,+ak&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_ qf.,cf.osb&biw=1227&bih=828&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl Bill Edgar in Temiscaming, Québec, is an R1b.
