[edit] Mary Peters

Why is Mary Peters mentioned here? In her Wiki page it states she's from Liverpool and later moved to another town in Northern Ireland. May list the Portadown connection?

To answer your question:

Although Mary Peters was not from Portadown she was a pupil at Portadown College. You will see her listed in the alumni section of the school's web site. I'm a past pupil of that school myself and remember her photograph on display in the main foyer of the school.
