Are You Sitting Comfortably Part 2

[Gatacre]

I am expecting to hear from Liverpool Record Office next monday and hope that Robert Wm. Stead's death and funeral notice is found in the Liverpool Echo.

No other paper was offered altho I did ask if there was a local paper which would include the Gateacre area.

Roy Steads Butterworth was married to Grace Ellen (maiden name not yet known), who passed away in June 1975 aged 86 ( so was born c. 1889) and was cremated at Enfield Crematorium on 15 June. There is no mention of any children in the death notice in The Times of 10 June.

I can't believe this .... but my friend went to the RO today and found this !

Liverpool Echo Sat Oct 9 1926

Robert W Stead husband of Elizabeth N Stead
The Cot Grange lane Gatacre
Service to be held at St Stephens
Internment Woolton church yard

He was there all the time ....... how many times have we been over St Stephens and Woolton church ?? ......... over and over and over again !

That Eleanor Rigby must be hiding him !! .......... this news will make Michel happy ..... now he'll have an excuse to go visit Beatle country !!

I am pleased that you have the record office info as I had sent a reminder to them that they had not sent the Robert Wm. Stead info as promised

Thanks for all your help Norah ..... people just don't realise how impatient we get waiting do they ??

Circles is right Taz .... we thought about St Stephens and Woolton .... on the first few pages on this thread - nearly 11 months ago  !! ..... and tried getting the information then !

Annie 

EDIT ...... he's not on his own ..... we have to go through every inscription to see who he's with ....... who wants to take a letter ?? 

Tell us which one you're taking so we don't double up !

Well I've been through them all .... and I just can't see him ! - I did send Margaret an email when we first started and she said

It is by no means complete and I will be adding to it as and when I can find the time.

The latest update was 11th May 2003 !! 

So ...........  I need to get my cousin and his grid map off Childwall .....and see if he wouldn't like to try St Peter's   

Unless anybody else has a better idea !!
