[4qd-bannvalley] re-Quigg

[4qd-bannvalley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (4qd-bannvalley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)]

  Hello Barbara-having seen all the info you have on Ireland, I wondered if
you could help me with my surmane Quigg.
  I am looking for info on Henrey-wife unkown.
  Had a son William John b 1855 in Belfast
  William was a ships fireman on the Antelope on the 1881 census. He married
a Mary Hills in Durham in 1882.
  William was found drowned in Greenwich in 1890.
  Any help with the Irish connection would be very much appreciated. Judith
Quigg.
