Just as a point of interest, the Coburg is still going strong

Barbara
Thanks for putting the report in. I can never post anything, I know that there is a link on how to do it. I will have another go at it soon

Thanks barbaraW, yes I have followed it up right through to his very grand funeral and have been over to Flaybrick cemetery to see his grave. Even though he was in Liverpool police, he lived in Birkenhead.

The policeman John Young was a member of my husbands family. He was the brother of my husbands maternal grandmother. Just a little bit on info.

Roscoe Lane is off Berry st, and runs up to Roscoe St, the restaurant Mei Mei is on the corner

Thank you Bertieone The deceased was 69 and had senility on his death cert, so yes looks like he was in the home for the aged and infirm. Thanks.

Does anyone know whether 241 Westminster Rd was an institution or a hospital in 1940. I have it on a death cert, and it is not the address of the deceased
Thanks

Margaret Humphries book is called Empty cradles. Excellent read.

Thanks Daggers. I think that plot must be 26 Upper Duke st. You have answered my question. Thanks

Hi. It is not the SVP society that you need, it is SVP RC school. The old school closed many years ago, but there is a primary school now in Liverpool. If you google SVP RC school Liverpool, you will find an email, and website

Can remember walking up Vernon St as a child, on way to WH Smith, and remember a candle makers. I think it mostly made church candles, and used to love looking in the windows at all the candles hanging up . Can anyone else remember it.

When WH Smith left the building they moved up to premises behind Broadgreen station. Very inconvenient for my mother as her shop was in the city, and did not drive. As for the telephone exchange that was in Old Hall St and was called Lancaster House.

I think it could have been WH Smith wholesale . This is where we used to have to go pay newspaper bills, when my mother had a newsagent shop. I think the business move from there late 1960's

Have you tried St Vincent de Paul. Near enough to Mill St.

Yes, he did stay in Canada, and married there. I have got his marriage, but nothing about any children. He also died in Canada.

Yes Mary, it has cost a lot over the time. I have a file for Ernest which I cannot bring myself to get rid of, in fact I have become vey fond of him, as he seems not to have had a very good childhood.
