Looks like they both just gave Everton, bad luck Tina.

Sorry Tina, no addresses only Everton Didn't they realise we would be looking for a home address?????

Hope it may help with census returns though.

Eileen

Weren't they just so inconsiderate

Mary & Eileen
I know we all go on about the value of witnesses at weddings etc.
Must just share this with you, Levi Vernon, tracked him back with his Mum Julia.
Eliz A H dghtr has Julia as a middle name.
Found E.A.V baptism, & Julia in census widowed with son Levy!!

All thanks to you Eileen

Tina

Great success Tina, just proves it's worth investigating every detail from a document.

For sure Mary..

Tina

I think making a note of the witnesses at Marriages and Baptisms is very helpful as I have found many other relatives through this source.

Just hope that someone is not going to try tracing family trees from two recent weddings at the Liverpool Register office. My friend and I have be collared twice to be witnesses at weddings were the couple didn't have any other people with them. Didn't want family to know!!!!!!!
The Registrars have told us to bring a hat with us now when we go to do our volunteer work

Glad they were helpful to you Tina, you do so much for others when you are on the night shift.

and on my other post about Edward Crosbie, if I hadn't been looking for his step family - the Sinkers, the evidence found by Lewis Sinker being witness to Edward's marriage - Antony would never have contacted me and he's given me some invaluable information as to where the grave is for my children's great grandfather, his mother and her father!!! all because of a witness.

Thanks Eileen and Mary for interesting replies.
You know what I really like?
When the witnesses marry each other
Eileen, you need to get down to the charity shop & get a hat now that Aintree is all over!!
Yes Mary, just bonzer about Anthony contact.

Thank you so much 42AITCh for the James Keane (Kain) marriage lookup.
I hadn't logged in for a while so I just saw the information.

Thanks again.
