Here goes. :) I've just uploaded the baptism and marriage record. Hope you can read it.

I'll have a go. I'm on my phone so it will only be a screenshot. The image might be a bit fuzzy.

Thank you Jen.  :) That's great news. I've found a 1901 census that could be them. They have a 10 year old daughter called Anne.  ;D

Everyone has been so helpful and I really do appreciate all the help. Thank you all.  :-*

Thank you greenrig.  :) I've just searched the marriage records for William Quinn and Joanna Nicholson, so that I could locate them in the census, but the closest I got was William Quinn and Jane Nicholson. Hmph! I don't think I'm meant to discover my Great Grandmother's family just yet.

Oh well, at least I know my GG Grandfather's name. I never knew that before today. :-) Do you think it's possible that my Great Grandmother would have been called Maria Anna Quinn on her baptism record and Annam Quinn on her marriage record? Is it likely that I have saved two unrelated records to my Ancestry shoebox?

Hiya. :-) I hope this is the right board to place this on.

Can anybody understand Latin? I think I may have found my Great Grandmother, Annie Quinn in the "Liverpool, England, Catholic Marriages, 1754 - 1921" collection of records on Ancestry. I'm not entirely sure it's the right record so I've saved it to my shoebox, although she did marry a Frederick Smith in the same month and year.

In the record she is listed as Annam Quinn and is marrying Fredricum Smith in April 1910. Her father is listed as Gulielmi.

What I would like to know is, what does Gulielmi translate as in English? I had hopes of finding him in the census records, using his Latin/Italian name but have had no luck. I think I will have to search for an Anglicized version of his name. I just don't know what that is.

Also, I have found what I believe could be Annie's baptism record, (although it's not definite). In this though, she is given the name Maria Anna Quinn. Her father is Gulielmi Quinn and her mother is Johanna Nicholson. She was baptized on 08 May 1891 at St. Albans Church, Liverpool.

I'm not at all familiar with the Roman Catholic faith. The only thing the two records may have in common is the fathers name. :-( They may not even relate to the same person.

Would she be called one name for her baptism and another name for her marriage? Sorry if sound a bit dim.  :-\

Hello Heyesie.  :) I've just noticed your post and wondered if have you tried looking on the Toxteth Park Cemetery website? They have started to add internments for Anfield Cemetery, which includes the Roman Catholic section.
The project is not yet complete. The information only goes back to 1870, but you can always keep checking to see if there's been any new updates that may contain information about your ancestors.
Hope that helps and good luck with finding them.
Here's the web address: http://www.toxtethparkcemetery.co.uk/

Many thanks go to both Elwyn and aghadowey for your advice and help in this matter. Unfortunately, GRONI in Belfast, have confirmed that my Grandmother Margaret, was never registered for a birth certificate.  :'( Your assistance was and is greatly appreciated.
All is not lost though! I have made a member connection on A*******y UK, who has directed me to my Great Grandfather's WW1 service record. Contained inside are details of his children's birthdates. At that moment in time, he had three daughters only. My Grandmother was the eldest child. I now know her birthday. Yay!!
Thanks also go to Miss Poohs for trying to get some help, advice and information that would have helped us to obtain Margaret's birth certificate had it existed.

Once LiverScot has made 3 posts then you can both exchange recent family details and personal information offline.

Is Margaret's supposed age calculated from her marriage certificate? (this was asked in reply #1 but I didn't see an answer).
Thanks aghadowey. I didn't mean to infringe the rules of the forum. I was just excited about finding a possible new connection.
