Patty,

I noticed this death announcement for Quentin Hurst of 10, Aghnahoe Rd:

https://www.funeraltimes.com/quentinhurst404931566

There is still someone named Hurst at that address in the current
phone book. No Nicholas listed. I note that Quentin was buried in the
churchyard at Ballyreagh Presbyterian church. So that may be the first
place to search for other family. Note that there is no requirement to
record where someone is buried in Ireland and so finding documentary
records of a burial (as opposed to the death) can often be tricky,
unless it’s mentioned in a burial announcement like this.  Asking the
family is usually the best place to start.

Farmers tended to be slightly better off and often did have
gravestones but the average person in the 1800s was buried without
one. So if you don’t find a gravestone that doesn’t mean the family
aren’t there. Few graveyards for the 1800s have plot records (ie
showing who is buried where).
