Are You Sitting Comfortably Part 2

[clematised]

Walton on the Hill was not Bootle but Liverpool and I know of no Bootle Street of this name and Old Maps did not come up with anything are you sure you have the spelling right.

OK ............ here's the skinny !!

I asked Little Nell about posting and dates .... here's her reply !

This is not a hard and fast ruling since I have not consulted with any of the other mods, but I'm OK with a marriage in 1915.  Heaven knows what metal or gemstone anniversary they' be celebrating now!      Marriage in 1925 is also probably OK, but the children of such a marriages are probably different.  I tend to think of when my parents were born (soon after 1925) and they are still alive.

So I'd suggest that it's OK for someone to say that they have found some children, but not give any details of names, years or places in public.

hi all

Just to wack a cat amongst the pigeons so to speak........I recall someone asking a cemetry office somewhere - was it Thornton - re any burials of our Robert - dare i make him "ours" even on a temporary basis for 1926.

the reply came back that who ever had searched Jan - Dec 1926 without result

Could we go back to them and cheekily ask for whoever in authority to look at the first quarter of 1927 too.......reason being

A delay in buying a burial plot or even getting the finishing touches of a headstone.... if this modern world is anything to go by that could take over 2 months for a plot and over 10 months for a memorial.

Just a thought - going back into my box now!......turning over the stones that dont want to be turned

Thanks Ambly. I followed that up on Lancs BMD and the husband of Dorothy M Titterington in 1915 was  Edwin J HAMPTON . They married at Wavertree, Holy Trinity.

I checked WW1 medals and CWGC for Edwin J Hampton .... I can't find him there !

but there is an EJ Hampton in the medals ( Durham Light Infantry ! ) ..... I'm just noting that for now !

Hi I said I'd check on Clusy Street

1881 Census RG12/2979  f34 p16  Richard Butterworth

Definitely Walton-on-the-Hill, Lancashite.  Doesn't say Bootle    sorry.
Still looks like Clusy Street
Before the enumerator went down Clusy (?) Street he went down Makin(?) Street.  Can you put me right please?

Regards

Makin Street still on the map but no Clusy Street but could it be Olney Street which is next to Makin Street as I cant find the census on Ancestry.

This is present day map
