Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Straddling parts of Counties Antrim and Down, the city of Belfast has seen its fair share of history across the centuries. From its humble beginnings as a ford based settlement between two tributaries of the River Lagan, it grew following its grant of a charter in 1613 to become a corporation town, and expanded dramatically when later made a city in 1888. Along the way it has experienced the darkest of times, including the Belfast Blitz and the recent Troubles, to some of the most enlightened developments across Ireland and the UK. In Tracing Your Belfast Ancestors, genealogist and best-selling author Chris Paton returns home to provide a research gateway for those wishing to trace their ancestors from the Northern Irish capital. With a concise summary of the city's history, a tour of some of the city's most amazing archives, libraries and museums, and a detailed overview of the records generated by those who came before, he expertly steers the reader towards centuries of ancestral exploration, both through online resources and within the city of Belfast itself and with a wee bit of craic along the way!

Book Synopsis The Devil's Trap by : James W. Bancroft
Download or read book The Devil's Trap written by James W. Bancroft and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of the Siege of Cawnpore and the massacre of British noncombatants in Colonial India reveals the human side of the struggle. During the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the strategic garrison at Cawnpore was surprised by an extended siege. Many British noncombatants were holed up in a makeshift entrenchment, suffering from thirst, starvation and disease, all while being bombarded with cannon balls and bullets. After nearly two months, the company surrendered to the rebel leader Nana Sahib in exchange for safe passage out of the city. But when the survivors reached Sati Chaura Ghat, a landing on the River Ganges, they were massacred. Much has been written about the siege of Cawnpore and the political events which caused it, but there less known about the people who suffered the ordeal. In The Devil’s Trap, historian James Bancroft studies official documentation and primary sources from both sides to offer a more human understanding of events and shed light on the lives of the victims.

Download or read book Tracing Your Irish Family History on the Internet written by Chris Paton and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2013-10-19 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A thorough and informative guide . . . with as many references to websites for Northern Irish genealogy as for the Republic of Ireland.” —Who Do You Think You Are Magazine Ireland has experienced considerably more tragedy when it comes to the preservation of resources for family historians than its close neighbor Britain. Many of the nation’s primary records were lost during the civil war in 1922 and through other equally tragic means. But in this new book Chris Paton, the Northern-Irish-born author of the bestselling Tracing Your Family History on the Internet, shows that not only has a great deal of information survived, it is also increasingly being made available online. Thanks to the pioneering efforts of the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, the National Archives of Ireland, organizations such as FindmyPast Ireland, Ancestry.co.uk and RootsIreland, and the massive volunteer genealogical community, more and more of Ireland’s historical resources are accessible from afar. As well as exploring the various categories of records that the family historian can turn to, Chris Paton illustrates their use with fascinating case studies. He fully explores the online records available from both the north and the south from the earliest times to the present day. Many overseas collections are also included, and he looks at social networking in an Irish context where many exciting projects are currently underway. His book is an essential introduction and source of reference for anyone who is keen to trace their Irish roots. “Chris Paton has produced this much-needed book for researchers tracing Irish roots, pulling together all the current online resources and expert advice into one handy guide.” —Family Tree Magazine
Download or read book Barney written by Jack Magee and published by Ulster Historical Foundation. This book was released on 2001 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernard Hughes stands out as one of the extraordinary entrepreneurs who shaped Belfast's transformation from market town to sprawling industrial city. He arrived as a penniless laborer from Co. Armagh in 1826; by the 1870s he owned the largest baking and milling enterprise in Ireland. By then Hughes was Belfast's first elected Catholic representative and his roles as municipal politician, industrial reformer and Catholic lay spokesman had also won him the admiration of an increasingly divided town. Hughes's strong political and personal courage was characterised by a deep aversion to sectarianism, and he sought justice and equality for all. He was an eye-witness to the bitter sectarian riots of 1857 and 1864 and his evidence to the resulting Royal Commissions of Inquiry antagonised the Tory hierarchy of the town. His sharply independent outlook also brought him into conflict with the local Catholic bishop and the Catholic press. But it is for his bread that Barney Hughes will be best remembered. His innovative production and marketing ideas provided the town's working population with a cheap basic food at a time when they needed it most, particularly during the Great Famine. The popularity of "Barney's Baps" won him a permanent place in the city's folklore. This absorbing biography shows how—as master baker, Liberal politician, Catholic representative, and philanthropist—Barney Hughes has earned an enduring place as one of Belfast's most fascinating public figures.

Book Synopsis Amelia Lambe and the Search for the Light by : Carl Hubbard
Download or read book Amelia Lambe and the Search for the Light written by Carl Hubbard and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-08-10 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epitomizing the glamour and decadence of the era, Amelia Lambe is the quintessential English free spirit, an unlikely widow who knows the value of her sex and is not shy about using it. Combining her sexual magnetism with wily panache, Amelia uncovers the enemy within and annihilates men with an evil mission. Throughout, she is the sexual game player, not some passive love interest. The vengeful Meixmoron and his courting of the Nazis, born of his hatred of the Americans, follows his near-death experience at the end of the Great War at the hands of the most decorated US airman. His targeting of British searchlight stations is an untried Nazi plotline, bearing a twenty-first century resonance that hardly needs explaining. Spanning locations from the Alps to Belfast and Hitlers Eagles Nest to the Himalayas, the plot captures the essence of the times, as the story unfolds across Scotland and Englands university and cathedral cities. Amelias pursuit of the truth of her arms-dealing husbands disappearance on the Cresta Run is matched only by her nemesiss plotting against the Americans and his accomplices misplaced efforts to help the Nazis to victory.
