Thanks for the early reply, Missy, but it is the children for whom I am searchimg. Nonetheless, I will remember electoral roles for the future.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Chatsworth St, Liverpool - Street index look up please.
« on: Thursday 08 February 07 16:26 GMT (UK)  »
I understand that Mr & Mrs Stephen Mutch ran a greengrocer's shop in Chatsworth St, Liverpool in about 1918. Could anybody find me a street number please and if possible tell me the years in which they came and went.

I assume that there is no way to establish if any other person lived at the property.

Thanks!

Dear Emma,

Thanks you for your endeavours on my behalf.

The Mary Barrow deaths that you list may include include my Mary Ann. Do you know if there is a way of establishing this other than by ordering all the certificates; an expensive option!

Thank you also for the Barrow family details. However I am going to pause on this for a moment. I have to confess to being descended from illegitimate stock. Before she married Mr Barrow in 1837 she had a son James Wilson, born in Kendal Workhouse in 1822 or 1823. He moved to Liverpool in the 1840s after marrying a Mary Hughes in Heversham on 2 October 1844. His marriage cert describes him as a tailor so he was almost certainly taught by his step-father. My current search is to find information about him and his mother. Life must have been difficult for them and it would be nice to know if she saw her son married.

Peter.

Westmorland / Mary Ann Barrow (Wilson) of Milnthorpe
« on: Sunday 05 November 06 21:45 GMT (UK)  »

I am trying to trace the death of my Gt Gt Grandmother Mary Ann Barrow. She was born Mary Ann Wilson on 16 October 1801 at Staverley and married Richard Nelson Barrow, a tailor from Milnthorpe, on 6th November 1837. The 1851 census shows Mr Barrow as a widower.

If anyone can help me trace the death I would appreciate it. I would also welcome hearing if any reader knows what happened to Mr Barrow.

Cedars.

Lancashire / Re: Blue Coat School
« on: Tuesday 31 October 06 17:55 GMT (UK)  »

Dear Agnes,

My ancestor, John Henry Smith was at Blue Coat School, Liverpool. I have established from BCS records his date of birth, when he was admitted, where & when baptised, his home address, why he was admitted  and to whom and when he was apprenticed. Unfortunately I cannot lay hands on the correspondence but will continue to search and if I find anything I will let you know. John Henry was admitted in 1904 so good records existed for the pre WW1 period. I had not done much Family History research when I got this info so I probably just wrote to the school. If it is still in existence perhaps you could try a letter to them.

Kent / Re: John Howard Naden

Dear Irret,

Thank you for the details re Frederick and, indeed, for the other references. The detail has changed my view of the likely events that took place some 85 years ago. It was thought that Howard ran off and eventually met Margaret Ennis with whom he had another family, she not knowing of his existing wife. However, their eldest child, Margaret must have been conceived between April and June 1920 (I will know more when I get the birth cert) the same period in which Frederick was born to his wife. This suggests to me that Howard and Margaret ran off together from Liverpool and that Margaret knew Howard was a married man. This would also explain, perhaps, why Margaret did not pressurise Howard into getting married.

This chase is proving quite exciting. Thanks for finding the pieces of the jigsaw!

Dear Irret,

Can I ask another favour please?  Can you trace the birth registration index details for Frederick Naden, son of Howard and Mary Alice, born Liverpool 1920. I cannot find him on any of the systems to which I have access. Your help would be much appreciated.
