Dear everyone,
First of all a thousand apologies for not replying to the messages sooner but  I wasn't notified until yesterday and only received it when I opened my emails today!
 To answer some questions, yes this is the family of Sarah Eleanora who married Frank Denovan and yes her parents Hannah Appleton and Otto Monrad Pedersen (more detail on the surname available) did marry, they were my 2x great grandparents. I not only have their marriage cert but Otto's naturalisation papers which prove his date and place of birth and his parents' names. I also have  a photo of Sarah 'Grandma Denovan' sent to my brother by a descendant of hers. Just PM me and I'll give details.
The research back to the 1600s is freely available on the wonderful website where the Norwegians have put original images for FREE Oh Yes!! and it was fun to trace so I won't spoil it for you unless you get stuck, then you can post (or PM) a specific question. Good luck and nice to hear from a 'cousin', Marian

Hello, I've just registered on this site as I noticed your postings. Otto is my Great grandfather and Olga Marie my Grandmother. Otto (or Walter) is buried in Rake Lane cemetery in Wallasey (Seacombe being part of Wallasey) so I guess he never moved from Seacombe after he married.

My cousin lived with Olga during her childhood & she has lots of stories and also his Naturalization papers. We have photos of Otto and Hannah with their family and Denovans who I believe owned a pub in Liverpool.

We must be related to each other somewhere down the line :-)     If you would like any further info let me know & I'll dig out as much as I have because  I've just jumped on the site unprepared and of course I'd be grateful for any info you could give me
