About this Event
The Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) and History Hub Ulster welcome you to a talk by Nigel Henderson.
Four members of the Stark family of North Belfast and Finaghy served in the Second World War and are commemorated on the Roll of Honour for Lowe Memorial Presbyterian Church in Finaghy. Whilst reference will be made to all of them, the talk will focus on the war history of Flying Officer Robert Henry Stark (Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve) who donated a record of his war service with PRONI in the 1980s. Rob Stark maintained a meticulous and detailed account of his war service and the PRONI record fills an A4 lever-arch file. The talk will be introduced by a PRONI member of staff, who will provide an overview of the file and highlight one or two items of particular interest. The remainder of the talk will be a presentation by Nigel Henderson of History Hub Ulster, giving an overview of the Stark family and then outlining Rob Stark's war service.
A selection of photocopies from Flying Officer Stark's account will be available for attendees to view.
