Mohamddin Peterson of Liverpool

[sgrollitt]

I know it sounds strange, but my partner cannot recall for the life of her when her grandparents Mohammdin (John) and Margaret Peterson died. Cmail said that they were still alive in about 1966. Mohamddin would have been 72 at that time and Margaret 66.

Cmail also said that after leaving 90 Upper Canning Street in about 1945, they went to live on a street off Lodge Lane, Liverpool (about half a mile south east of Liverpool University). These are all the streets off Lodge Lane:

Seacole Close, Bentley Road, Coltart Road, Tagus Street, Ritson Street, Asbridge Street, Solway Street West, Windsor View, Beaumont Street, Buttermere Street, Yanwath Street, Noel Street, Longfellow Street, Boswell Street
Wordsworth Street, Vandyke Street, Aspen Grove, Cedar Grove, Lime Grove, Moss Grove, and Fern Grove.

I wonder which one it was?

She's the daughter of Robert - Tommy's eldest brother.

Did Mr Peterson have a Liverpudlian accent or an Indian accent? Anything else at all you remember about him? Was there ever any other Indian-looking people at the house - may be an old guy who could have been his father?

[cmail]

i never remembered robert or joseph. mr peterson what i can remember of him he never spoke very much.when he did i think it was broken english.my mother was very friendly with we knew her as maggie she was a loverly woman.

Hi cmail - I sent you a personal message.

Hi my name is Mandy Peterson. Mohamddin Peterson was my grand father and Margaret McLachlan  was my grandmother. I am the youngest daughter of Thomas Peterson and have for some months,
been trying to trace my family tree on my grandmothers side as the search was useless on my grandfathers side. He was born in Karachi (then part of India) and all records ... I believe .....were destroyed in a fire many years ago.
I would love to find out where your partner fits into my family tree ??
please reply      Thanks Mandy

Asian men in Liverpool were often called John in the old days so maybe that's were the name John comes from. There was a Japanese seaman that was called Paddy Murphy:-

Hi Mandy

I can't send you a personal message (PM). I think you might need to have a few more posts before you can send/receive PMs.

Anyway, your relative is the daughter of your uncle Robert.

More later
