Hello all,
I'm trying to track down some info for a friend -
Arthur Donnan - in County Down:

Lillian Donnan emigrated from Portavogie, Co Down,
with her aunt and uncle Agnes and James Palmer, in the
1930s or 1940s. Lillian changed her surname to Palmer
and started work in Feb 1941 for a company called
Genesco.

She married an American, Newton Parker Black (address
was 3506 Pleasant Valley, Nashville TN37204). They had
no children. but we know of a nephew - Randy Black -
who is said to live in Miami.

Lillian's last contact with her family in Ulster was
late 80s / early 90s; she died on March 18th (year
unspecified) and is buried in a Nashville cemetery.

Any help appreciated.

Regards,
Mark
