Hi Marie,

Your message did end up in the right place! in fact, I found a living descendent of Charles Bullen in Liverpool last year.

Kind regards,
Fiona

Many thanks garstonite and ladyhawk for the information!  That gives me a great leap forwards.  The web site link is very useful too - I had not found that one until now.

Hi Ladyhawk!

I didn't have all that information.  It is really great.  Now I have a good lead on the McArdle connection and can fit together slightly garbled story on the relationships.  How did you get it together so fast?  That makes a lot clear to me.  The uncle of my relative was Jo and the aunt Catherina (McArdle) Bullen.  Catharina must have had a brother Henry and a sister MarieAnne and a further sister Elizabeth (Lissie) whose married name was Moynagh if I now have the relationships straight.  I will have to try to find the parents to be sure. 

Many thanks for the information on the posts and the personal messages.  I was just wondering how to send a personal message in this system when I read your reply... Perfect timing on your part.

Kind regards,
Fiona.

Hi Marie,

I may be able more information to the story and a further picture of the family!  A relative of mine told me that he had an aunt called Jo (Josephine) Bullen, whose family had shops and made artificial limbs and that she had three children, Winifred, Lizzie and Josephine and that one his aunts brother's in law married someone called Sylvia.  I have a picture from an old album which I was never able to identify and now, thanks to your photos, I see it is Charles Sylvester Bullen with his wife and three of their young children.  I remember that the photo gave the names and ages of the children but I don't have access to the album at present and only remember that one is called Harry.  They are clearly the same family as in my album.  The maiden name of the aunt has to have been either 'Williams' or more likely 'McArdle'. 

I always thought that she must have been a McArdle aunt but now I am not sure.  The story might have got a bit distorted over the years.  Can you see a link to a McArdle or Williams marriage?

Fiona,
