Research Notes
Notes from the original profile:
A query from Robert Ivan Lamont: Can you tell me if this person was a native of Malin Head, Co Donegal, and did she marry a John Lamont in July 1922, her date of birth is about right at 1901. John Alexander Lamont was born in 1894 Garvagh, Co Londonderry, Northern Ireland, and lived in Holywood, Co Down, Northern Ireland, He was a schoolteacher.
Searched for marriage record of John Lamont to Isabella in 1922 was fruitless.
A possible marriage record with the following information:
Civil Marriage
Date of Marriage 8 Sep 1918
Groom Name Stanley FOSTER
Bride Name Isabella SLOAN
Church Shankill Church of Ireland
Parish Shankill
Civil District Lurgan
County Armagh
SLOAN ISABELLA 1918 WILLIAM Down.
Researching this particular record,[3] we see that Isabella Sloan is listed as being of full age (she would have only been 16 at the time of this marriage), and also that her father is William Sloan, a mechanic. The 1901 Census indicates Thomas was a Constable.[4] Therefore it is unlikely this marriage record belongs with this Isabella.
