Maureen contacted us to try to make contact with the Finlay family that she stayed with in 1952. She says:
“I visited Saintfield in 1952 and stayed with a family on a farm at LISDALGAN. I had a wonderful holiday and met lovely people. The family was JACK & MARGARET FINLAY and they had a baby daughter called Jacqueline.
My Uncle, who took me on holiday, was SAM MILLIGAN – his Sister, JESSIE, was Margaret’s mother. Other children in Jessie’s family were John, James, Thomas and Cynthia (Cinders). I believe they lived in Ballycarngannon. I have kept photos of them for all these years and would love to know the whereabouts of the family. I am now 77 ! Thank you.”
If you know any of these people can you let us know and we will put Maureen in touch again.
Tom Finlay (finn) is still a regular in the white horse inn !
Hi
Margaret Maxwell (nee Finlay) is my grandmother and Jacqueline is my mother. She would be very interested in contacting Maureen.
Thanks
Helen Brown
