Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

Hi Everyone,
I've had a bit of time today to look for some elusive ancestors but I'm having problems finding Agnes Bankier nee Murray in 1881.
Agnes is in Scotland in 1841, she was born there in 1835c.
1851 she's at Upper Mann St, 1861 she's in Kirkdale, 1871-Lyons St
1881 ??
1891 & 1901-Hermia St, 1911 Marsh St Kirkdale.
Agnes died in 1921.
I'm finding it difficult to find a few of the Bankier clan in 1881. I'm presuming their surname was misspelt but I can't see where they're hiding in 1881.

Best wishes,
Tracey.

George Western married Margaret Murray Q4 1872 Liverpool 8b 199 Liverpool, Our Lady & St. Nicholas & St. Anne

I noticed Agnes's maiden name appears to have been Murray.

I reckon that makes sense since Alexander Banker and Agnes Murray didn't marry until Q3 1857 Liverpool 8b 343, Our Lady & St. Nicholas & St. Anne and Margaret was born approximately 1854

Hi,

I think it is Agnes on 1881

There is Andrew with her in Bootle, and on 1891 Christina.

An Andrew Bankier married a Christina E Jones in 1886, Bootle

Mary beat me to it.

Sorry

I know who submitted the error correction for the 1891 but do you know who did it for the 1901 census or is this somebody you should contact?

Hi all
As I'm into all things Wavertree
just had to list this..
1911 Gores/Kellys
Mrs Jessie Bankier
114 Claremont Rd Wavertree (posh end!)

Tina

Thank you everyone for the information.
I have the marriage ref for Andrew Bankier & Christina Elizabeth Jones but thank you for that.
All help is very much appreciated.

Best wishes,

Copying a relevant point from the other post to this one.

I'm still not sure if Agnes' father was Alexander Bankier as I'm sure when I looked on the microfiche a few years ago at Agnes' marriage details that it said her father was Alexander Murray (could be wrong, I have been many times)

I think you really need to see the marriage of Agnes and Alexander Bankier and see if Agnes maiden name was in fact Murray or whether she was a widow.

and to Tina

I will look into the Jessie Bankier name, maybe she's one of mine.

Thanks Mary,
Will make a real effort to order some certs before the year's out!
Best wishes,
Tracey.

Hi Mary,
I don't think Agnes had married a Murray as I found her with her father Andrew Murray & mother Janet in 1851 at Upper Mann st & Andrew is with Agnes in 1871, he's a widower, at 21 Lyons St.
Best wishes,

Try to save yourself money and visit the Archives when they are available, Katie has posted that she thinks it might be around the beginning of September.

Hi
I don't know if Jessie is one of yours.
She married John F Bankier in 1879 maiden name Tate.
1901 in Edge Hill 47 widow with her 2 brothers and a female Turnbull
cousin.
Probably a long shot.
All the best
Tina

Thank you for that info Tina, I'll let you know if I find they are related to my Bankiers.
Best wishes,
Tracey.

Was Alexander Bankier a Marine Fireman - I ask because I had a Margaret Bankier b 1904 marry into my family in 1924 St Alexanders Church Bootle.

Hi Yappie,
Alexander Bankier b.1830 was a Ship's Carpenter/Joiner
Alexander Bankier b.1872-haven't yet looked into his life
Alexander Bankier b.1891 was a Plumber/Jobber in 1911
Andrew Bankier b.1861 & married to Christina Elizabeth Jones was a Marine Fireman. He had a daughter Margaret b.1893. The Alexander b.1891 was Andrew's son.
I have lots more to do on this name so you never know.
I was christened & married at St Alexanders.
Best wishes,
Tracey.

Hiya,

I am related to Agnes Bankier (nee Murray) through her son Alexander Bankier (my second g.grandfather).

He married Eliza Peers and had twelve children, one of whom was Alexander Ellis. Alexander married Emma Parker (my namesake) and one of their children was my granddad George (my mums' dad).

I don't have any info on the Murray family unfortunately.

Well done Emma finding a post from 3 years ago.
I hope you get a reply.

Hiya Tina,

I have only just found the forum so I am only just finding posts related to me.

I hope that some of these people are still active so hopefully we can exchange information.

Scully is aware that you have posted, I hope she will reply soon.
