Re: Help with transcription please
Well here goes, does this lady fit?
At the Parish Church of Liverpool on 7 September 1899
John Roberts 51 Widower Mariner Park Lane
Father Robert Roberts Labourer
married
Cecilia Dixon 49 Widow Park Lane
Father James Haggerty, Mariner
Witnesses Geo Wrighton and Sarah Creighton
All signed except Cecilia who made her mark.
Now looking through LancsBMD, I wonder if this could be the previous marriage, which I can't find on FreeBMD
John Dixon to Cecily A Hargty at St. Paul's, Southport
Doesn't seem to fit does it

Re: Help with transcription please
oh that's a blow Mary 
There's a Cecelia Hagarty with dad James a dock labourer on the 1851 census
HO107; Piece: 2188; Folio: 296; Page: 10
so looks like a different Cecelia
wonder what happened to our Cecilia then
was worth a try.. thanks for looking
I've been wondering if Bridget married first time in name of Mary Jane....
.
been chasing William Tatem Dixon, mariner, marrying Mary Jane Sinclair in Aug 1864 ( thought she may have widowed and remarried quick )
can't see them on census, but she has signed this cert herself anyway which doesn't quite fit with Roberts marriage

Re: Help with transcription please
The marriage at St Paul's is on lan opc. Cecily's father is James a rigger. I'm on the iPad and haven't learnt to copy and paste yet. The date was 1 jan 1872.
Added on Wednesday
Marriage: 1 Jan 1872 St Paul, Southport, Lancashire, England
John Dixon - 24 Butcher Bachelor of Boundry St.
Cecily Ann Hargty - (X), 23 Spinster of Boundry Street
Groom's Father: William Dixon, Butcher
Bride's Father: James Hargty, Rigger
Witness: John Roberts; Jane Dixon, (X)
Married by Banns by: Richard Lloyd
The Boundary Street mentioned is in Southport. I think I may have looked at the Dixon family at some stage so will look further.

Cecile Haggarty is a servant in a school on Lulworth Road Birkdale in 1871. She was born in Liverpool. I live rather near where she was!
Added on Wednesday

Re: Help with transcription please
Hello to all my helpers re Roberts/Dixon - Mary, Simone and Hilary and all the others too numerous to mention.
Am afraid that, owing to home circs. and family problems, I will be unable to respond to any other info re the above for the unseeable future. My stepdaughter is to have an op to amputate her right leg, and we don't know where or when at the moment.
Therefore, so you can help others with their brick walls, would you kindly put on hold the work on mine, but many grateful thanks for the efforts so far.
