I found several old photograhs when I was cleaning out my dad's stuff. Several of them were taken by J. Phillips, 45 Donegall Place, Belfast. They all look like they were taken around the turn of the century (~1900 or so). Only one has a name written on the back. It is a photo of a little boy standing on a wicker bench holding a spinning top (a child's toy). The name Gerald McCreann is written on back. I have no idea if these photos are of relatives or not, but I suspect they are. I don't know which side either -- Maggie Fitzpatrick (my grandmother -- her parents were Neill Fitzpatrick and Margaret McAlinden), or David McCourt (my grandfather -- his parents were Hugh McCourt and Ann Jane Byrns).
Does anyone on the list recognize that name or the photo studio? My cousins in Belfast said the studio is no longer there. I would like to post these pictures on the internet to see if anyone can identify them, but I do not have a web site. Any suggestions on how I should do that??
Thanks for your help. Kathy Vacek
