CEASED TO BE RECOGNISED AS MINISTERS AMONGST US Their names are recorded in the Journal of the Conference. 5 Obituaries Wilfred Denis Bambrick, BSc, BD, who was born in Belfast on 2nd April 1931. The second child of Sydney and Marie Bambrick, he joined the Youth Fellowship at Knock Methodist Church and committed his life to Christ under the preaching of the Rev James Wisheart. While studying at Queen’s University he felt a call to ordained ministry. Following training in Edgehill Theological College he was stationed in Greencastle. He met Marian Mullen while helping at a summer camp run by the North Belfast Mission. They were married in 1959 and had four children, Christine, Michael, Jane and Sara. They subsequently served in Dungannon, Arklow, Sutton, Ghana, Lynn Memorial, Holywood and Bloomfield. He served as Superintendent of Colportage and Open Air Work, as General Secretary of the Methodist Missionary Society (Ireland) and ran many popular annual missionary conferences. He was one of the visionaries behind the Castlewellan Holiday Week. Always a pioneer, he organised mission teams for Brazil, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Uganda and other places which changed the lives of countless young people. He would often hide his keen intellect under an irrepressible sense of humour. Whether in the fairs and markets of Ireland or in his work in retirement as a prison chaplain, the gospel he preached always sought to reach out to those on the fringes of the church. He was a committed ecumenist and during the ‘troubles’ he tirelessly sought reconciliation between segregated communities. After his retirement in 1996, he lived in Holywood. As his health deteriorated, Marian and his children lovingly cared for him at home. He died on 6th February 2021 in the ninetieth year of his age and the sixty-fourth year of his ministry. His body was laid to rest in Redburn Cemetery, Holywood, Co. Down. William Irwin Hamilton was born in Belfast on 5th June 1929, the son of William and Sarah Hamilton. He received his education at Belfast Technical High School and Shaftsbury House, Belfast. It was in his home and at Woodvale Methodist Church, where he was a keen member of the Boys’ Brigade, that he was nurtured in the Christian faith. In his late teens he felt called to ordained ministry and was appointed as a probationer to Lisnaskea and then to Edgehill College. Following training, he served in Dundonald and then Cregagh, where he met Winifred McCausland. They were married in 1958 and were blessed with four children: Lynne, Lesley, Jeremy and Julian. His ministry was marked by wisdom, kindness and a deep pastoral concern for his congregations. These fine qualities were experienced by the societies he served at Braniel, Carlow, Portadown, Sydenham, Knock, Hamilton Road, Bangor and Joanmount. He believed that the Good News was to be proclaimed by both Word, and deed. Thus, his preaching emphasised an intolerance of injustice, prejudice and sectarianism. He was committed 6 to building bridges within communities and caring for the needs of the elderly, which was reflected in the naming of a new retirement home “Hamilton House” in Knock, in recognition of his work. He was elected President of the Methodist Church in Ireland in 1987. It was during this year that one of the many tragic events of the “Troubles” took place: the Enniskillen bombing. He paid many visits to Enniskillen to offer sympathy as well as condemnation of the perpetrators. The establishment of the Stipend Augmentation Fund, which addressed an unfairness for a small group of retired ministers and widows, owed much to his concern and initiative. In retirement, he was an enthusiastic member of the Retired Ministers’ Fellowship and the Golfing Union and he retained a life-long interest in agricultural issues. After a long illness, he died on 5th August 2020, in the ninety-second year of his life and the sixty-sixth year of his ministry. His body was cremated at Roselawn Crematorium, Belfast (Rev Hamilton’s Obituary was included in the October 2020 Conference Agenda and Minutes of Conference, however as his death occurred in the 2020/21 Connexional year it is included here for completeness) 7 Methodist Church in Ireland Stations of Ordained Ministers and Probationers JUNE 2021 SOUTHERN DISTRICT District Superintendent: Andrew J Dougherty 1.

  • 1951 Census Down County Report
    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch, 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7* 6d NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Government of Northern Irel&nd was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of more limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid-night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious pro­ fession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.
