I am trying to find out a bit more about my Irish family history. WILLIAM HUGH CORBETT was born in 1867 in Belfast, Ireland and by 1881 was living in West Hartlepool. He went on to marry MARY E. Emmerson and worked as a shipyard rivetter. His parents were WILLIAM CORBETT (b.1846 - a boiler maker) and MARGARET ? (b.1848) and I know that they too were born in Co. Down - Ireland, but not specifically where. They also had SAMUEL CORBETT (b.1869 in Ireland), Florence, Alice J, Jane Pretoria and Francis (all born in West Hartlepool). Any information at all regarding Corbett's in Belfast and more specific info would be great! Helen O'Connor (nee Corbett) |
