Administrative / biographical background:

The Belfast Gazette, along with the London Gazette and the Edinburgh Gazette, is an official newspaper of the United Kingdom government. The Belfast Gazette is the Official Newspaper of Record for Northern Ireland, and is published weekly on Fridays by The Stationery Office (TSO), on behalf of Her Majesty's Stationery Office (HMSO) in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Its content consists of legal and official announcements from HM Government, the Northern Ireland Executive, the Armed Forces, local authorities, churches, companies and private citizens.

It was founded in June 1921 as a successor to the Dublin Gazette (itself founded in 1706), as it became increasingly clear that Ireland would be divided and that the North would therefore need its own separate Official Newspaper of Record. (The Dublin Gazette became the Iris Oifigiúil in January 1922.)
