James Wilson & Margaret spencer

Post by 42lingfield »

I have acquired the certificate for their marriage held on 19th April 1858 at St Stephens church, in the parish of West Derby. The photocopying is poor; it was done over 10 years ago. Is there any way of discovering James' address? Only the street number,13, is readable.

Bert - Thanks for the magnified copy which is pretty clear. Even with my magnifying glass i could not make it out.

I knew he was a bridewell keeper and, at a guess, moved round Liverpool to 'live on site'

I am delving into James' (an interesting chap) life and am sure there will be a lot more to discover.

Peter.

PS Your help is much appreciated
