Hurst family Garston

[OlgaD]

Good Evening
I was wandering if anybody has any information about my GGG Grandfather , he was born in Garston in 1841, in 1861 he was boarding in Duke Street. He married Christiana Matilda Coe in 1862 and had eight children. I belong to the youngest one. His Father I was told was an engine fitter called William. Edward was a stone mason and at the time of marriage to Christiana they both lived in a Knight ?
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Allen

I know that Edward and Walter where carters, they moved from Garston to Wavertree. Do you think it is the same family? Do you know wheather that was the workhouse in Brownlow Hill.Was'nt expecting Geordie land?

your a star

sorry about spelling your name wrongly, Charlotte is 10 years younger than William but the next age is William 13 and Robert 11 a bit confusing

Hi.

Alan is offline so I will fill in a bit.

 It looks likely that Edward Snr must have remarried as there is a gap between Edward aged 8 and John aged 2 in the 1851 census. Charlotte aged 22 was listed as Edwards Wife.  There is a possible marriage on www.lancashirebmd.org.uk for an Edward Hurst and Charlotte Hatton in 1847 at St. Philips`, Liverpool.   On the 1851 Edward was listed as an Engine Smith and Charlotte as a Milliner and Shopkeeper.

The address 200 Brownlow Hill was not the workhouse. 

In the 1901 census Edward Snr, Walter and Edward were all born Garston and Christina was born Hull. 

Regards,
Mo

Hello Again

Do you think if I applied for the birth certificate of edward jnr 1841 the records office would have it? And then that would confirm that Edward sen is his Dad

Hi Olga,
Birth Cert is always confirmation as to parentage.   The only Edward Hurst I could find that would "fit in"........would be in Dec Qtr 1839, West Derby, Vol 20, Page 853.   You can order on line at "gro.gov.uk" and you will have to part with £7

Hi,

I am struggling knowing what to say with this one as I can`t find an exact birth registration for him.   Garston came under the West Derby registration district and the only one was the Edward Hurst registered in Dec. Qtr.1839 Volume 20 page 853.  But, if this one was yours he should appear in the 1841 census - I can`t find him.   It didn`t actually become a finable offence not to register a birth until the mid 1870`s.    

Do you have Edward`s marriage certificate and if so what are the exact details?  You originally seemed to think that his father was William.  Who were the witnesses?  

There is just something bothering me.

Regards,
Mo
P.S. just tried to post and see you have come up with the same Alan
