I am helping a friend with the FT looking for the Baptism or any other information before 1871 when Stephenson Steed  born Antirm c 1847 appears on the 1871 UK Census in Seaforth Litherland Liverpool (please note I can follow the family after this date .

He married in 1869 in the UK occupation Police Constable father listed as John Steed Farmer.

Any help would be appreciated Thanks Margie

Do you mean he married in England? Ireland was part of the U.K. as indeed County Antrim still is.

There were a few farmers called John Steed in Co. Antrim.
