Lancashire Lookup Offers / Re: Offer:Look-up Liverpool (Mersey) Pilots 1734/1990

Aged 48 in the 1861 census? That does suggest he was born in 1822/3. I'm sure it's the right man.

As I said the masters and mates certificates are on Ancestry and there is a wealth of detailed information there. You'l need to tab backwards as well as forwards from the linked images to catch it all.
I'll have a look - is it ancestry.co.uk?

Hello, I'm looking for Henry Murphy, born c.1823 and noted as a Master Mariner on the birth cert of his son in 1867.

There are a masters and mates certificates on Ancestry for Henry Murphy born Downpatrick on 24 June 1822. Is that your man? There's quite a lot of information there about his history as a mariner.
Oh I'm not sure, I have a census transcript that puts his year of birth as 1823, how do I look at the information you mentioned?

Hello, I'm looking for Henry Murphy, born c.1823 and noted as a Master Mariner on the birth cert of his son in 1867. Someone in the family has told me he was a Mersey Pilot, but that's all the info we have. Wondered if you could help? Kind regards :)
