Hello,
I have been looking for any info on Bernard Joseph Curtis who may be my Gt Grandfather,he married Jane in Liverpool and had 3 children including John Andrew Curtis my grandfather,any help will be much appreciated,
Thank you

Hi Anneyone
Could you give us a time frame for Bernard a quick glance on Family Search shows that his name is not too common which could help.
-
Ooops sorry, yes an approximate date would help.I would assume his birth year to be around about 1860, I have found nothing about him so far, I know my grandfather (John) was born in Liverpool in 1885 and had 2 younger sisters, their mother was Jane ? On my grandparents marriage cert it states his father as John Andrew (deceased) but I have found absolutely nothing to match up....the best I came up with was Bernard Joseph Curtis who married Jane and had 3 children...the names all match, This was on baptism records.
Thank you so much for your help.

Family Search shows a marriage in Liverpool 1884 for Bernard Joseph Curtis to Jane Wainright
Page 124
vol 8
Affiliate line number 274
Reg Qtr 3
Civil registration of births started in 1864 in Ireland
and the only Joseph Bernard found at the moment is in 1864 in Dublin South to
Christopher Curtis and Eliza Nolan you would need church records for baptisms before this.
-
What led you to post on Dublin ,have you something else indicating he may be from here
Slightly confused are you looking for John Andrew Curtis or Bernard Joseph.
-
Your grandfather born 1885 in Liverpool have you his birth cert?
-
Can you not find the appropiate family on the 1891/1901/1911 Census'es.

Have spent a lot of time originally looking for John Curtis as this was name of my grandfather's father on my g.parents marriage cert.I have sent for a number of birth certs and they have not matched...the nearest I have come up with is Bernard Joseph because his wife is Jane and the 3 children's names are the same.,also the dates fit in. Perhaps he was known as John, I don't know.
I have found Jane and the children on census returns where she is stated as being a widow.
I decided to look on here because a Bernard Joseph kept coming up as being born in Ireland, his parents were Andrew and Susannah. I put Bernard's name in the Roots search and this page came up with Bernard Joseph Curtis mentioned.
Basically I'm stuck as to where to look next, anyway thank you so much for your help.
