Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

Hi All, will be visiting Liverpool next week so if anyone wants a relatively easy look up, just ask - have not decided which day but probably Monday.

Look forward to hearing from you and hopefully helping wherever possible - Holly

Your help will be much appreciated.

Might I please make a request on behalf of one of our new forum members 1Sandra who has had quite a puzzle over her ancestors.

Robert Barlow to Martha Jones - 25th February, 1889
Sarah Barlow to Richard Lloyd Tuttle - 27th February, 1889
both marriages took place at St Matthews

All details please, but an important check on the dates which were from the IGI and I suspect they might have both taken place on the same day - a double wedding maybe? so wondering if they would each have witnessed the other's marriage.

Also very interested in Martha's maiden name and whether she was a widow.

Thank you Holly.

Hi Marya, I know you're a dab 'and at this - is there only one St. Matthews? Other than that a nice little enquiry which will give me great pleasure - Holl

Great stuff Holly,

I think the church would be St Matthews Scotland Road

Cheers Jan, cant stop watching w.d.y.t.y.r ............ ah well !

Thanks Jan, the name was from LancsBMD so I thought there might be only the one I think Scotland Road would be the right area.

Just about to watch W.D.Y.T.Y A. Kim Cattrall began life as a scouser I think, different opinions as to whether Mossley Hill or Widnes.

Hi Jan, thanks for your help, sorry I was a bit abrupt with my response - I was getting myself ready w.d.y.t.y.a...... your help was very useful as I get mixed up with St, Matthew and St. Oswald - don't ask !!! Holly

Holly,
If I'm not too late and if it is possible, could you please look up a marriage

Year 1841 Ref 175 Church St Mary's RC in Highfield St Liverpool between Esther Power and Matthew Donaugher.

Some information Tina once provided is coming back to haunt me !

Thanks

Alan

Holly
If it is not too late and you have the time could you look up the marriage Richard Radcliffe Ann Christian St Peters 6th July 1834 to see if it gives details of their parents? I am still hunting their elusive grandson John James Radciffe born around 1859 as well!
Many thanks
Jane

Jane, at that date it is unlikely that you will get their parents, with a bit of luck you might get an address and occupation. Sometimes the witnesses give clues but sometimes they appear to witness many of the marriages.

Mary
Thanks - it was a shot in the dark as there are many Ann Christians born on the Isle of Man and I was trying to narrow it down!

Hi Jane.
The marriage of Richard Radcliffe has been transcribed on LAN OPC. It doesnt give any parents.

Thanks very much Holly, much appreciated and I hope you had some good results for yourself too.
