Hi Barbara She appears to be on the 1901 census, living alone and working as a brushmaker (I think that's what it says). And recorded as blind,. Image sent off list.

4. [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] William FLETCHER [1]
Hello Peter,My William (James) FLETCHER was born in c1853 possibly in either Lancashire or Cheshire. My Dad was very reticent on the subject of his Grandfather. I will look up your Miriam and William on the Ancestry census and see if I can come up with any connections. I am clutching at straws! My William's son was William James born 1875. his mother was Alice Hannah Austin. After the birth of their son I have no more info on William Fletcher. My Dad was also William James Fletcher born 1902 and my older
5. Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] Christmas [1]
The Polish people have been with us here since the end of WW2. Some of them flew as airmen in our RAF. I know as much because my grandmother was an HEO in the Civil Service, evacuated to Norbreck, Blackpool during the war, ultimately analysing the case histories of the Polish Airmen who remained in this country for their eligibility for a State Pension. Maybe some of you will know enough about our Civil Service at the time to know that married women were not permitted into the Civil Service. My Mother wa

You remembered! How cute! ;-) Small world, isn't it! Thanks Gordon. Still trying to find David KIRKPATRICK's parentage, of course. ;-) Is there any one else looking at SELLARS or JOHNSON.

I have subscribed recently to "find my past" which I believe is the old Ancestry.com site. I have no idea what I am looking at so here is my question. (After some background) Elizabeth LAURIE born in 1866, Scotland. In the 1873 Census for 63 New Hedley St, Liverpool is located with her mum, dad & 1/2 sister. In the 1881 Census for 26 Boundary St East, Liverpool is located with her mum & dad . 1891 census for 34 Brocklebank Dock, West side, spelling of her surname is LAWRIE & she again is with her mum

14. Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] Christmas [1]
Janet, I think we have to look upon the world as a global village today. Yes, people from the West Indies did come to Britain after the war, invited by King George 6th to come and help us build a new Britain. Now, the influx is people from Europe is happening because we are all part of the European Community. Why should our young people want to leave Britain because of this? A week or so ago, I visited our local (Southport) indoor market, and called at the Chinese supermarket stall. I was amazed to fin

You make a useful and interesting point. I do feel however that the records that might be found in Genes Reunited, should be checked in the same way that we would check those in IGI.

16. Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] Powell connection to James Joseph Shipman [1]
Yvonne It all seems to check out doesn't it? But why this to-ing and fro-ing (before MerseyRail) between the Wirral and Liverpool though? Surely a St Peters in the Meols area of the Wirral wouldn't be described as St Peter's Liverpool. Why didn't Isabella get married to Joseph Powell or to Robert Youd in her home parish (maybe St Bridget's)?

17. Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] Christmas [1]
Absolutely agree with you here Janet, and I think part of the reason that the new Polish people have found Southport a good place to come to is that we already have a Polish community, probably the World War 2 people that you mention. When I mention the Poles in Southport, I am speaking of about 6,000 recent immigrants. My own Great Grandfather was an immigrant to Liverpool from Germany in about 1877 - probably intending to pass through on his way to America - who knows what stopped him and kept him her

Hi Pat & Bill thanks for your memories but can you and anyone else go a bit further and tell us how you came to be in Mayo ( obviously an Irishman got there before you ) what was your grandmothers name ? where did she come from ? did she come from Liverpool ? lets have stories of families emigrating and why? , Maybe it would help us to understand what our ancestors went through for a better life .

20. [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] CHRISTMAS DAY 1940/41 [1]
Or thereabouts. My daddy, like all the other daddies roundabout, was away at the war. He was in the Royal Navy, an Able Seaman, and we were very proud of him, especially when he was chosen to take part in the King's broadcast to the nation on Christmas Day. We all sat around in the kitchen, while the dinner bubbled away in the back kitchen - I can still smell the carrots and turnips, and see the rivulets of condensation as they ran down the windows as we all sat waiting for Dad to come on the radio

24. Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] Christmas [1]
I don't know if this is an untimely interception because I don't really have anything definite to contribute here, but when I was about going out to work, late 50s/60s a lot of young people were emigrating to Canada and New Zealand. I wanted to go to Canada myself. At the time the British government was shipping in people from the West Indies to do the jobs that the Brits didn't want to do like sweeping the streets, cleaning out the public lavatories, and working on the underground. Does this sound famili
