VAL/12/B Griffith's Revision pages for Union Street, Ballymoney
This particular entry for No. 33 is a bit more complicated. The name William John Frizzell in No. 33 is in black indicating that he was also in this same house in the previous book. His name was then stroked out with a purple line and the name Alexr. Young added in purple. The colour purple indicates that the date was 1918. We know that William John Frizzell's name is to be found in the [1907-1915] book in Church Street in 1915. Did he rent both properties between 1911 and 1918? Alexr.Young's name is then stroked out in blue in 1925 and replaced by James Mooney also in blue with Jas. Young his immediate lessor i.e. Mooney's immediate landlord [also in blue]. In 1928 James is replaced by Maggie Mooney in purple, who, in turn, is replaced in blue [1930] by another James Mooney. He could be a son of James and Maggie Mooney. William John's move to Church Street appears to be corroborated by the fact that his elder son, also called William John, died in 1916 and his place of death on the death certificate was given as Church Street.We also know that Alexr. Young's son, James, was born in this house in June 1918 and the family moved to the Ravenhill Road, Belfast at the end of the year. This raises the question of who was living in the house between 1918 and 1925?
