Arcade Tenants

I have spent an exceedingly productive morning at the Linenhall Library, Belfast.

I researched the Phibbses of Lisheen; the Ashbrooks of Castle Durrow; the Hawardens of Dundrum; and the remarkable lineage of the De la Poers of Gurteen Le Poer.

Finally I examined a 1910 street directory for Queen's Arcade, Belfast, and I have a list of the original tenants therein; including a number of milliners.

I will be posting an article about Queen's Arcade's tenants shortly.
