Hi glenburn,

I think I will take your advice and make arrangements to look at the Pilot Character Book in the Merseyside Maritime Museum Archives.

Hi glenburn,

Thank you for the detailed information. Yes Samuel is my 2x great-grandfather and I believe the address in the 1851 census may be, 'Bathing Machine House'. I have been able to trace Margaret from 1871 until her death in 1921 but tracing her prior to 1871 is proving very difficult.

Thank you BY for kindly replying so promptly. I'm starting to think perhaps my ancestor lied about her father's occupation as I can't find a family in a census 1851 to 1871 that match.

Kind regards,

Tony.

Hi,

My 2nd great grandmother's father was recorded as a pilot on her marriage certificate in 1870. Her name was Margaret Evans, born about 1850 in Liverpool and her father was William Evans. Do you have any information about him?

Regards,

Tony.
