Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

I'm looking for information on Mary Ellen Killen - born 1858 Liverpool and her brother, Charles Killen - born 1862 Liverpool.
I have all Mary Ellen's info from 1885 onward, but would like to go back further. Parents, other siblings etc.
I have Charles' information from 1887 on. He married Mary Wright, 1887, Liverpool.
Mary Ellen Married 1st to Henry Hargreaves 1885 - 2nd James Cruickshank 1894 all Liverpool.
On her marriage certificate, it says her father was William.
Marey Ellen also had a child named Alfred E Ainsworth born 1882 Bristol, Glouchestershire, but where was she in 1881.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't find Mary after 1861 although there are a couple of possibles working as Servants. Nor can I find a death for Dennis Bain. I must admit I haven't looked for Thomas.
Does any of this fit with what you already have?

Hi Emeltee,
I can't seem to find the 1861 census that you are referring to. What am I missing?
Ann

Hi,
I'm sorry it looks like finger trouble on my part.
Try RG9/2693/F87/p44

RG9; Piece: 2693; Folio: 86; Page: 44
Dennis is transcribed Cain and the Killens as Killius

Thank ou both for that.
