Stewart's of Dungannon

TyroneDungannon (Tyrone)

I'm seeking the burial place of Robert Stewart (my great grandfather on my mother's side) who died 20th Oct 1920 (burial record on rootsireland.ie). He ran a public house at 22 Irish Street, Dungannon (1901 Census of Ireland) and was recorded in 1911 census as Building Contractor at 12 Irish St. His wife's name was Margaret (nee McVeigh) and their children's names were John (my grandfather born 1883 in Portnaglush?), Bridget, Robert, Patrick, Joseph, James and Andrew.

Also very interested in locating any relatives living in Dungannon area.

Hi Eric,

My Grandfather was Joe Stewart, he would have been your grandfather's brother. The family lived in Gortnaglush outside Dungannon, before they moved to the town. Robert Stewart (their father) is buried in Donaghmore graveyard, in Co. Tyrone.

I hope this information helps, if you need any more let me know,
