Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

Mary Jane Williams married Rudlof Svensson from Sweden 9th of June 1896 and emigrated to Sweden. I've got the marriage certificate where her father says to be William Williams (profession: carter). The family lived at Christmas street 1896. In the church records of Sweden Mary Jane were born 19th September 1877 in Liverpool but I cant find her in cencus. I found a note in swedish records that Mary Jane belonged to the English Epistoral Church.

Since I live in Sweden it's difficult for me to get any further and I really need some help. Could anyone give me advice how to proceed?

Best regards

Tina

Hello Blue70 and Tina, Thank you for your answers. I have found the same familys but I'm not able to clear out wich family that is the correct one. I think I need some professional help in England (Liverpool). Do you know anyone who can help me?

Best regards

I will ask somebody to make contact with you.

Hi Annette

The family Blue found in 1881 at Rooney Street..

Looks like the father William Died and Elizabeth remarries a William Lloyd in 1890 at St Peter.

1891 83 Derby Rd

William Lloyd b 1852 Wales
Elizabeth b 1855 Lpool
Thomas Williams Step son b 1876 Lpool
Mary J Williams b 1877 Lpool
Margaret Lloyd b 1891 Lpool

1901 13 Rooney St
Elizabeth Lloyd age 44 Widow b Lpool
Son Thomas Wiliams age 24 b Lpool
Dau Margaret Lloyd age 10 b Lpool

Its just incase this family turn out to be the right one at least you know what happened to her mother

did Mary Jane go to live in Sweden right after her marriage ?? also what did she and Rupert name their children

Looked in 1894 Liverpool Directory Christmas St was listed but no Williams or Lloyds living there..1900 Christmas St wasn't listed

Hi

the second Williams family were the father William was a widower..who lived at Mill Lane Bootle, that family cannot be right as Mary was still single c 1911-12ish and living at home..that William remarried a Martha and had a load more children..

so the first family William & Elizabeth are looking like good candidates..they were also nearer to Christmas Street..

Question were both the bride and the Grooms adresses the same on their marriage cert ?
