Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

Please could you help me to find my relatives baptism records if there are any! I am not sure what religion they come under. They are:

Florence Mary Davies b1871
Beatrice Ann Davies b1873
Edith Alice Davies b1880
Maud G Davies b1884

all to a John and Mary Davies in Liverpool. All the girls have their birth place as Liverpool in the later census documents.

Thanks

Haven't found any baptisms yet,

If these girls were born to Mary Davies, nee Morgan,

Florence Mary birth registered 1870

Maud Emily, 1883

I was hoping to identify where the marriage of the parents took place but it doesn't appear to be on Lancsbmd, nor Ancestry, however, this appears to be it from Freebmd

Marriages Sep 1869
DAVIES John Liverpool 8b 487
Morgan Mary Liverpool 8b 487

With Mary Morgan born in Wales,

Marriage & Baptisms, perhaps in Welsh Chapel/Church?

As Bert said it's possible they were chapel goers so the baptisms could have been at a Methodist chapel. There's quite decent coverage online for the C of E churches in the area. It may be useful to list churches that don't appear to be online ie on Ancestry or Lancs OPC. Here's a couple:-

St Saviour's CE church, Huskisson St., Liverpool L8 7LU
Erected 1840 - destroyed by fire February 4th 1900, rebuilt and opened July 12th 1901.

Holy Innocents CE church, Myrtle St, Liverpool
Founded in 1854. Demolished, date unknown.

Possible chapels:-

Trinity Wesleyan Methodist, Grove St., Liverpool, L7 7AF
1858-1958 - sold to Liverpool University

United Methodist Free Church, Grove St, Liverpool
Founded in 1873. Demolished, date unknown. Merged in 1907 with the Methodist New Connexion and the Bible Christians to form the United Methodist Church. In 1932 the United Methodists joined with the Wesleyan Methodists and the Primitive Methodists to form the Methodist Church of Great Britain.
