Staffordshire / Roberts Family, Birks Street 1897-1911
« on: Wednesday 17 October 12 15:39 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone help me with my research?

My Grandfather, Ernest married my Grandmother, Gertrude Annie Latham in 1896 in Stoke. They lived at no 3 Birks Street and in the period 1897-1911 had 6 children.

The 1911 Census has the surviving children listed but also states that 3 children died.

Fist question...which church could they have been married in?  This is so I can contact and ask them if the children that died were baptised.

Thanks in advance for your help

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Ordsall Lane
« on: Wednesday 23 March 11 20:30 GMT (UK)  »
I have a photo of my father taken in the doorway of a bakery at 262 Ordsall Lane, allegedly taken in 1920.  Apparently two doors down was the Edgerton pub.

Has anyone access to records which could confirm Roberts family ran/owned/lived above the bakery, please?

I have a relative who can remember delivering bread (made at the bakery) to customers.

Lancashire / Re: AINTREE,LIVERPOOL. NELSON'S JAM

I used to live in Southport and the Ribble bus used to take us through Litherland past the sausage factory.  Unfortunately it has been demolished and until recently the space was covered with an advertising hoarding.

Re Nelsons Jam factory....the factory exists but it is now a business park.  The whole area has been "revamped".
