Hi think it is clear were the Gray name came from
Stephen Weir age 7 lived with his aunt and uncle Percy Gray and Margaret Anne Gray nee Weir at the address 16 Old Park Road, Clifton county Antrim .Mr Gray was the town postman
Margaret Ann was 39 in 1911 so born about 1872. Young Stephen was born around 1903 in Belfast
This could be Annie:
| Cheadle | Albert Henry | 26 | Male | Head of Family | Church of Ireland | India | Labourer in Shipyard | Read and write | - | Married | - | 5 | 4 | 2 |
| Cheadle | Catherine | 24 | Female | Wife | Church of Ireland | Belfast | - | Read and write | - | Married | - | 5 | 4 | 2 |
| Cheadle | Annie | 4 | Female | Daughter | Church of Ireland | Belfast | Scholar | Cannot read | - | Single | - | - | - | - |
| Cheadle | Albert Henry Janet | 3 | Male | Son | Church of Ireland |
Nathaniel Weir married Essie Glenny in 1870 Newry, there are several death registrations for the name Nathaniel Weir it will take time to find the correct one.
Stephens birth

yep, i have this info, thanks, i'm trying to find out more about why Stephen Weir was sent by his dad James William Weir to live with his uncle Percy Gray and aunt Margaret Anne Weir - yes, she was b. 1872.
also would like more info on JWW wife, occupation, where did he live, how did he die early. etc.
Annie Cheadle married Stephen Weir, but he died early of "consumption" about 1939. Annie was tough, outlived 2 more husbands.
Stephen and Annie's son Percy Gray Weir ( my dad) was 10 at that time. PGW died in canada a bit early too of asbestos that they sprayed in the shipyard in belfast.
any help greatly appreciated, also looking for info on Sarah Sadie Cheadle, b. 1909, (annie cheadle's sister) married to John Courtney (no info), particularly want inof for her living Daughter Catherine courtney.
thank you very much.
Please let me know if you can find anything more about James William Weir. thank you.
