    William James Moffett, photographer, is at #53 in both the 1901 and 1911 census.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    In 1901, there is a Samuel Wilson, Grocer, aged 68, but he is gone by 1911. So I think the date is 1900-1910.

    Is the man in uniform on the right a Peeler? I doesn't look like the usual RIC uniform of that time! Perhaps there was a local town Constabulary?
  • John Spooner said:
    From quick scan of the newspapers, I've concluded that the First Presbyterian Church was known as the Presbyterian Church until the Second Presbyterian Church was opened for public worship in March 1869 (and "the attendance at both morning and evening service was numerous and influential").

    The first committee meeting was held in January 1914 and during 1916 the present church site was purchased from Mary Graham. After a £500 bequest was left by Peter Margach for the building fund it was decided that a church should be built. The church construction was commenced early in 1918 but the framework was flattened during a cyclone in March. The building contractor, Frank Robson, replaced the framework, and the church was completed and officially opened in November 1918. In 1925, the ground under the church was excavated and a concrete hall was built by Peter Van Leeuwen, made possible from another bequest of £499 from Mary Kate Margach. This hall 36'x 26'was later enlarged by an additional 24 feet (7.3 m) and formed the foundation of the new building.[1] Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Andrew%27s_Presbyterian_Memorial...

    At the opening in October 1829, admission was by ticket only. However, such a multitude assembled at the front of the building which prevented many of the ticket-holders from getting in, including "the Marquis of Donegal and a great many very respectable Ladies and Gentlemen". Nevertheless, two thousand two hundred people managed to get in to hear the Rev. Henry Cooke preach. (from the account in Londonderry Sentinel - Saturday 24 October 1829)
