Title: Looking for Joseph Birch c1853
Post by: VICTORIA on Sunday 21 March 21 14:42 GMT (UK)
Hi can anyone help please. Looking for Joseph Birch c1853
In 1861 he is living with his parents;
28 Peach Street
Joseph Birch 38 born Barnsley Yorkshire
Elizabeth Birch 33 born Liverpool
JOSEPH BIRCH son age 8 born Liverpool
Elizabeth Birch dies 26/01/1864 age 36.
His father remarries.
1871 Census.
Joseph Birch 47 Head born Barnsley Yorkshire
Isabella Birch 44 Wife born Whitehaven Cumbria
William Colbeck 15 Son Shop Boy born Liverpool.
Isabella nee Colbeck
A bit complicating I know for a fact William Colbeck was NOT son of Joseph Birch nor Isabella ( long story )
What happened to Joseph Birch born 1853 Liverpool can not find him.
Any help appreciated.
Victoria
Thanks everyone for replies. It seems that Joseph c1853 did not stay with his father when his father remarried and was living elsewhere in 1871.

1871 there is a Joseph Brick but on image (to me) clearly reads as Joseph Birch
52 Highgate Street Liverpool
Joseph Birch Boarder U 18 Shoemakerb Liverpool
He is one of 2 boarders in the household of Thomas Chantler age 37
RG10 3845 109 30

Maybe???

If the 1881 census is correct, this might be his marriage.

Maybe???You are correct it is Birch not Brick. Occupation Shoemaker fits in also from what I can remember. Thank You. much appreciated
1881 contact says he is a Clogger.
