I have an oil painting signed very clearly by H Illipoch but do not know anything about the origin of the painting or the artist.
I cannot find any person or place named Illipoch online.
The painting is marked "ii 13" so I suppose it was produced in Feb 1913, and based on the image of a sailing scene it appears to be Northern Europe.
I am in N Ireland and it is not local.
I've tried online search engines and any surname data bases I can find for names starting "Illi*" etc and/or ending "*och" but no real clues about Illipoch.
Can anyone more familiar with genealogy please help suggest where I could look next?
Many thanks
Bill
