Lancashire / Francis Dillon WILLIAMS of Liverpool
« on: Thursday 28 August 25 17:13 BST (UK) »
Good day all,
I've got a Francis Dillon WILLIAMS born 17 March 1875 in Liverpool.
He died in 1931 in Cape Town, South Africa (I have all the South African records for him).
He served in WWI in the Merchant Navy, and later worked as a fireman on ships and fishing trawlers (I have various Merchant Navy and shipping records for him).
He was already in South Africa in early 1909 when he was married in Cape Town (I have the marriage record).
I'm looking for his christening in Liverpool and his parents' names.
This might be them in the 1891 England Census:
In the 1891 England Census, living at 2 Park Street, Toxteth Park, Lancashire, are
the following people:
John WILLIAMS, age 48, born ca 1843 in Liverpool. Head. Occupation: Mariner
Eliza WILLIAMS, age 48, born ca 1843 in Liverpool, Wife.
Francis WILLIAMS, age 16, born ca 1875 in Liverpool. Son. Labourer.
Mary CUNNINGHAM, age 80, born ca 1811 in Ireland. Mother of John.
This same family is not found in the 1881 Census, and I haven't found them prior or after 1891.
Does anyone recognise this family?
Thank you.
