Looking for family

[LizzieW]

She could have been born in a workhouse,  the address given, is the address at the time of the baptism.

[Blue70]

The workhouse birth/baptism is a different one. The mother appears to be unmarried here it is:-

Name: Margaret Lockhart
Birth Date: 31 May 1894
Baptism Date: 8 Jun 1894
Parish: St Nicholas RC Church
Mother's name: Margaret Lockhart
Godmother: Catherine Grace

The mother of this child may have died in 1895 there was a Margaret Lockhart who died in the Liverpool Workhouse in 1895 here is the burial record:-

Name: Margaret Lockhart
Birth Year: abt 1866
Age: 29
Address: Liverpool Workhouse
Burial Date: 3 Mar 1895
Place: Ford Cemetery, Lancashire, England

"WORKHOUSE RECORDS ... a large number of baptisms, of Roman Catholic inmates, can be found in the Baptismal Registers of St. Nicholas', Copperas Hill."

Sorry but I think that possible Irish link discovered by ballydw could be wrong. William Riley was probably Margaret's brother and his parents appear to be John Riley and Charlotte Ware this is the baptism:-

Name: Gulielmus Reilly (William Riley)
Birth Date: 19 Sep 1877
Baptism Date: 25 Sep 1877
Parish: St Alban's RC Church
Father's Name: Joannis Reilly (John Riley)
Mother's name: Charlotta Ware (Charlotte Ware)
Address: 47 Paget Street


This appears to be the Margaret who married Ephraim Lockhart with her family on the 1871 Census:-

28 Paget Street

Piece: 3765 Folio: 70

John Reilly, 40, Labourer, Ireland
Charlotte Reilly, 38, Ireland
Emily Reilly, 7, Ireland
Margaret Reilly, 5, Ireland
Henrietta Reilly, 2 months, Liverpool Lancashire


This appears to be Charlotte Ware's baptism in Dublin in 1833:-

I am in full agreement with Blue - when I posted the Margaret born 1894 in The Workhouse ,mother Margaret- I double checked and there was also Margaret father Ephraim and mother Margaret Reilly in the same year ..
so the Margaret born in the Workhouse is not connected

Baptism Date: 30 Jan 1871
Parish: St Alban's RC Church
Father's Name: John Riley
Mother's name: Charlotte Weer

Here is Sarah Jane's burial record:-
