Hello. I am afraid I do not read the Community Boards but whilst searching for Henry Boomer's parents i just happened to come across this site and I have just read your query concerning members of the Aikin Family - (father Henry Lindsay Aikin mother Agnes Aikin (nee Boomer). If you search for Henry Aiken born 1891 Donaghadee you will be able to contact me and I can fill you in with all the details of this family. Henry born 1891 is my husband Maxwell's grandfather. I will explain to you how there is a difference in the spelling of Henry's surname AIKEN to the Silloth Aikin's (they were originally registered as AIKEN) I visited the Records Office in Belfast and checked. Hope I can answer some of your queries. Best wishes
