« on: Thursday 09 October 14 17:12 BST (UK)  »
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

Armagh / David John Greer MarketHill Armagh
« on: Sunday 16 June 13 21:07 BST (UK)  »
Hello Everybody, I am trying to find any information on my Great Grandfather David John Greer. According to census records and his army records he was born in MarketHill Armagh in 1863. On his Army records I have his next of kin is his father William Greer. On his marriage certificate of 1892 his father is a coach man named William Greer. David married and raised his children in Liverpool but on the 1911 census where he is with his wife and children at a Liverpool address, it has him as head of household but listed as a MarketHill resident. David was a saddle maker but he has also been described as a journey man. I would like to know who his mother was and any brothers or sisters. David died in Liverpool in 1923 and is buried at Anfield Cemetery, thank you. James

Hi Celia, I have had a good search through the excellent Family search web site, and found all I could on my Casper's. I am  now drawn towards a synagog in Seal Street Liverpool. As it seam's a lot of Casper's from early Liverpool may have been Jewish. Thank's for your help, James.
