Thank you Mosiefish!

I don't have Godfrey's marriage certificate unfortunatley, however, i will follow the Sarah McKnight lead as it seems very feasible.

Thank You JB

Thank you MaryA,

So do you think that the family were catholic? My Grandmother many years ago said that the family had converted form catholicism to the Anglican church due to the location of schools!!

I guess that literacy levels may have been poor explaining the miss-spelling of names.

Please take a look at my other post.

Kindest regards

JB

Thank you Radcliff,

No I didn't have that information, so a big thank you indeed.

Would you know if St. Mathias is an Anglican or Catholic Church? This may have some prevalence to my other post today re. Edward Rothwell

Kind regards

Thank you so much for your speedy reply.

I have the same information about Godfrey Charles who in fact was my g. grandfather and have them living at 99 Gt. Howard Street, Liverpool.

Unfortunately i do not have any idea or information as to when or where they were married (George & Sarah).

The only hunch i have is that they may have married in the Anfield area of the city.

Thank you once again for your kind help.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Edward Rothwell born 1847 Liverpool
« on: Monday 23 May 11 20:49 BST (UK)  »
Any suggestions to the following mystery would be gratefully appreciated.

On the 1881 census my maternal great great grandfather Edward Rothwell b. 1847 (married) was living with his children, Margaret b. 1868, Edward b. 1874, and Louisa Jane b. 1876

Also listed is Jane Clark his mother-in-law, Thomas Hall - nephew and Frederick Jones - visitor.

There is no mention of his wife, could this be that she was in hospital as she was still of child bearing age?

Apologies if this seems trivial, however, I am some what of a rookie when it comes to reading the census.

Kind regards

JB

Lancashire Lookup Requests / George Henry Banks & Sarah Alice Banks

I would be most grateful if anyone could help me with my search.

My maternal great great grandfather George Henry Banks b.1849 in Birkenhead was married to Sarah Alice also b. in 1849 in Newry, County Down.

Their children were Sarah, Godfrey Charles, Ellen Elizabeth, Mary Alice and George Henry.

I have hit a stumbling point with Sarah Alice as I cannot find her on any census before 1881. Would this have something to do with her location being in Northern Ireland?

Any help or suggestions would be much aprreciated.

Kind regards

Having just joined rootschat.com i am overwhelmed by my findings.

I am the great great grandson of William and Phoebe Cooke, the great grandson of James and Sarah Ledger and the grandson of their daughter Nellie.

I am finding the reading fascinating and would appreciate any additional information.

Kind regards,
