I would like to know where I may be able to have a sign made up of an old Belfast Street, namely SEVASTOPOL STREET. Would anyone know where I can get one. Thanking You.

I would like to contact any researcher interested in "very old Belfast", particularly anybody who
may have information about the Vienna Photo Studio at
14 Queen's Arcade.

I am trying to research history relating to the Markets
Area of Belfast with particular reference to The Royal
George public house which was on East Bridge Street,
opposite the fruit market.
My grandfather John Campbell (RIP) owned The Royal George
during the 50's and early 60's and it remained in the
family for a few years until bought by Seamus McLennan.
It was eventually subject to re-development and is no
more.
I left Belfast in 1969 and only return very rarely.
Before it's too late (none of us is getting any younger)
I would be very interested in any memories anyone might
have about The Royal George. I have many childhood (and
some adult) memories of the place and would love to
hear from anyone who can expand my knowledge.

I would love to purchase a book entitled "THE CAREYS
OF BELFAST" I have been told it is out of print
now. My father was a CAREY from Belfast.

William Bickerstaff - March 04:
I was born and raised in east Belfast, Newtownards
Road. The street I was born is no longer there they were known as the
4 H,s - Hunt, Hart,
Hind
and
Hemp - just where the Newtownards and Albertbridge Roads meet. I was very
lucky just before they knocked the houses down I was home on holidays from
Canada.
I
have been here from 1964 and I was able to get the Hunt street sign off the
wall and I have it on my garden fence here in Brampton Canada. Its one thing
I will always treasure every now and then I find myself just staring at it
and then memories start coming back. Great little place.

" I would say this picture was taken around 1974 - 5. Notice
bottom of picture is Hope St. I visited in 1971 building on the corner Victoria
and
Hope
St was still standing now in second visit 1975 building is now gone."
