Thanks Shaun,

That's the chap. I appreciate your help. I assume I might find out more about him by visiting the Liverpool Museum archive

Steve,

Yes I understand there's lots of stuff on pilots at the Maritime museum. See http://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/maritime/archive/info-sheet.aspx?sheetId=68

apologies if I am "posting" in the wrong place! but here goes


Liverbird 50 - I'm afraid the Mersey pilot records won't be any help to you. I don't think your William Evans was a Mersey pilot.

I am carrying out a 'Who do you think you are ?' exercise on the Chairman of our local Hard of Hearing Society. Two of her direct ancestors, Edward Fletcher Callister and William Brown(e) were living in Liverpool/Tranmere for the 1861 census and give their occupations as 'Pilot". do they appear in this list ??

Hi,
I've only just come across your kind offer - hope its still valid ?

I am interested in an ancestor Richard Henry Richmond. He stated he was a pilot on his wedding certificate in 1860. I have him in all census until his death in 1914. He married a pilots daughter Martha Lester, father Thorley Lester.
Are these 2 listed in your information ?
Thanks
Bob
