'Well you ain't been down scottie road for a while then' ,  haha that's what i was going to write,  its surprising what you might get called these days.

No offence anyway,  maybe i should have checked your gender first.  Its funny if you go to Singapore or other spots in the east, they often refer to each other as lah, either gender,  you feel quite at home.

No offence taken Purlin. 

I have lived in this city all my life, but I have never been called Lah!

hi...purlin/redkop.........i`m pretty sure that prince edwin street was where the police station in st anne st is now.........they knocked down a few streets in that area in the early 1960`s.....but i may be wrong,because i`m not sure whether that area would have been classed as everton in 1853???......i`ll ask my aunty when i see her..she`s in her 80`s,and knew that area because EVERYONE went to cazzie market in the 1950/60`s.....allan

Hi Purlin,

I havn't been to the RO yet, cos it's still closed. 

I have however, googled Prince Edwin St Liverpool. Lots came up, and some photo's too.

It certainly wouldn't pass muster today would it.  Those courts must have been terrible, especially for the large families.

yes, i also googled it and had a good look at what came up.  I remember the Police Station in St. Anne St.  I had an aunt who worked at Keizers near by.  Prince Edwin St. I'm sure did cross Cazenu St. to wards the Scottie Rd. end I think and would have come out somewhere around the new tunnel entrance.

Perhaps your Aunt may have an idea about the burial spots then.

Regards Purlin

Hi Purlin,

I asked at the RO today, they reckon, either Liverpool (Anfield) Cemetery, or Everton Cemetery. 

If you give me his name, and maybe a date, if you have one, I will look in these cemetery records for you.

Hi ya Redcop,

 Your a busy girlie!  The name is John Allan, 30, journeyman joiner, b. Dumfries, married to Rebbecca Muir in Dumfries in 1843. They moved to Liverpool and had two children, Archibald Muir Allan and Alice. John died on 21 04 1853 at 24, Prince Edwin Street, Liverpool.

Thanks for your trouble

regards Purlin

Hi Purlin,

I went back to the RO today. I found out, Everton cemetery only opened 1880. And, Anfield (Liverpool) Cemetery opened 1863, as you know. 

So, the search is still on. 

I will have another look around, next time I go, which will probably be next week. 

I did however find a few photo's of Prince Edwin St. 

I'm not sure if I already have your email addy. Could you pm it to me again please.
