Here is a link to an excellent website, the Portavogie School Roll, created by James Mahood:
http://www.ladyisle.com/portavogie%20school%20roll.htmIf anyone can identify the parents of any of these children, please contact us. One of the goals of our Ards Penisula Families Project is to discover and maintain the family connections.
It would be wonderful if someone from each town of the Ards were to transcribe the very early school rolls, such as Mr. Mahood has done for Portavogie. If anyone is interested in taking on such a task for their town, please feel free to contact me, and we will see what we can do to help.
