1851 Census lookup please - Barker

[fuchsiamagic]

Would some kind person please be able to look up Michael Barker and his wife Mary in 1851. They would have been aged about 25 and living at Huyton. I am also looking for his father Joseph and his wife Elizabeth who may have been in the same area. Many thanks. Chris.

It's a long time since this post and I assume you have now found your ancestors.  Interestingly, Michael and Elizabeth (your Michael's parents) lived on Pilch Lane on the Huyton-with-Roby boundary and I assume that this was probably in Barker's Cottages.  These are a couple of old cottages, still there today, built and then extended in the 19th century, as Michael was also a bricklayer I think this was probably their home.  There was a farm called Barker's Farm on Pilch Lane not far from the junction of Childwall Lane which is in Huyton-with-Roby and other than two other cottages no other houses on this lane. Michael senior was buried in St. John the Evangelist Churchyard in Knotty Ash in 1856.  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/207553168/michael-barker

Thanks suemuffy, that's very useful, but I have my Michaels's father as Joseph. This Michael's father was Henry...

Hi fuchsiamagic,
Sorry, that was an error on my part, the Michael I referred to is your Michael's uncle brother of Joseph, both sons of Henry and Betty. All seem to be bricklayers, your Barkers lived in Dinas Lane, probabaly the house near the Twig Lane turnpike.
