I have a very good photo of Annie Greenhow Nicholson which I will post when I've figured how to do it!

I have a China mug which I understood is a christening cup with handwriting (beautiful script) Annie Greenhow Nicholson 1860. Hence I assumed that was about the time of her birth. Is there such a thing as a Confirmation cup then? Don't have any ideas about Greenhow.  Name of Mary Greenhow Nicholson in the list previously posted alerted me to enquire about my grandmother, Annie. It's all a mystery .

Evelyn Taylor was dad's sister married th "Teddy" Taylor. I have met a son, Peter, now deceased & his wife, Anne. I didn't know about the will. Quite sizable for the times I would say. I take it you have actually determined that Annie Greenhow Nicholson was really one of John Nicholson's offspring. I have no details of her family connections. My father called our house in Australia, Ewanrigg.

Yes, she died in 1925. I have letters written by her daughter to my father as their mother was dying. I think A B died the next year. We have a large photo of a woman we think might be Annie but there is no identification on it.

I don't think Annie had a horrible life like Louisa did. She and A B Dalzell lived a fairly comfortable life as A B was owner of a ship's chandler or fitters business in Liverpool. They had 5 children, 3 boys & 2 girls. The youngest, a girl, (another Annie I think) died aged 14. My father. John, emigrated to Australia & hence I am Australian!

Hi. My Grandmother was Annie Greenhow Nicholson, born in 1860. She lived at Ewanrigg Hall and I think her father, my Great Grandfather, was John Nicholson. Her name is not mentioned in your list of children. She married Anthony Blackstock Dalzell of Liverpool. I'd be grateful for any further information. I have what I believe is a photo of her. Does anyone have any further information on the Nicholson family?
