Hi, my GG/Grandparents lived at 44 Northumberland Terrace for over 25 years up to 1906. John and Margaret Shepherd, John was a Police officer for Liverpool City Police up to his retirement in 1892. James.

Thanks for your reply.There's a 5 year gap between when your family left 44 Northumberland Terrace
in 1906 and mine moved in. I wonder if they followed on directly after yours? I wonder if they knew each other?
Your family seems to have had residential stability. Mine seemed to move around frequently. Probably one step ahead of the Rent Collector !!
My background is, born in Waterloo Liverpool. Now in Australia.

Hi Alan, I am still on Merseyside from Croxteth to the Wirral, my brother is in Perth WA. My GG/Grandfather was the last person living at Northumberland Terrace and after his death in April 1906 it must have been rented out again. They had there 8 children living within walking distance of them so there was no need for a move from the area. My Grandfather and Great Grandfather were also Everton residents, that's what family's did in them days stayed local and helped each other, proper community's. Hope your doing well in Australia I have been a couple of times to visit my brother, I would live there tomorrow my wife's none to keen so stuck here in sunny Britain, All the best. James
