WOW!!   Ruby,   

what a brilliant site   

About 80% of my ancestors lived in Toxteth Park, in these Streets and Courts. How sad to think of them livng like this, of having no hope when the babies got sick, knowing they wouldn't pull through. I have a number of families with babies that died before their first birthdays from the same family, living in these Courts. 

Thanks again Ruby, you're a star.

Hi Jansen - welcome to Rootschat - hope you enjoy being part of the forum and make lots of new friends.

The 1908 OS map of Liverpool shows a St Andrew Street off Brownlow Hill, quite close to the Metropolitan Cathedral (the RC one). It is likely that this is the right location as most of the courts were named for the streets they were in. The street is also showing on the current map of Liverpool but in a slightly different place, as is to be expected after 100 years.

I thought there might be a church called St Andrew's in the street but it is mainly abattoirs and part of a rope works. It would be interesting to know the occupation of your ancestor.

Good luck with your search.

Regards

Ruby

Hi Ruby, would like to but in and say thank you for that info. I thought it was near the Brownlow Hill area, but wasn't certain, not got all the paper work handy so didn't want to comment.  My G g grandfather had his occupation as a butcher, strange as his father was a shipwright. Thought he would of followed suit. Once again thanx for posting that info. Lynn x
