Interested in TURNER, WOODS and FLINDERS with connections to St Stephen Street and Broughton Road from c1800 to 1870s.  Would also like description of area around that time, if possible.

Hi Raj,
this website will show you the Peel Park Library and Museum, it also includes a map of the area c. 1860 and many photographs that you should find interesting to your research.
Cheers yet again,
George.

Hi Raj

Is there any particular families that you are after, that you can give us their christian names.

As you can appreciate Woods and Turner are fairly common names and over a 70 year period they are unlikely to stay in just the two streets.

Kind Regards
Dave
