Hi Elaine
Thanks for the update.
I can wait patiently for a few weeks, I suppose........I`ve been trying to
find these two Andersons for nearly 4 years now.

I was convinced that these two 150 year old people were wandering around
Birkenhead on their zimmer frames, or in those motorised wheelchairs :-)

It is a shame other records offices can`t follow the excellent example of
Cheshire, with all their records coming online.
regards
Sian
