Hi Bellmilk,
If you live in Belfast, round the back of the main library is the Newspaper Library.
Have been there myself and the person on the desk will help you, if you’re not sure.
It’s free to use just sign in.
Best to use a memory stick so as to down load any bits from the micro film.
You pay for any photo copying done. Looking through the old newspapers you can
take a photo if you have a camera. You need to fill a form relating about copyright.
It’s easier when you have the date’s. My fathers side where from St John’s Church.
Good luck in your search.
Billy.
