David, Francis lived in Osborne street in both 1901 & 1911 census and clearly states on 1901 census he was born in Ballyclare, plus there a Frank Irvine living at No. 15 Oborne street 1918

Don;t know why I stated Cromwell Street,of course I meant Osborne Street.

It was the Scottish fisherman ancestry that supprised me.
