Seddon, Hind, Wetherhead, Wright, Wildgoose, I have been unable to trace the antecedents of my Great grandfather James Seddon born c1875 or my great grandmother Margaret Hind born c 1876, nor can I trace their marriage. I have found both a James Seddon and a Margaret Hind who were married about the right time (1898/9) but unfortunately not to each other. Any leads would be welcome. The lived all their lives in Waterloo. -----Original Message----- From: eng-merseyside-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:eng-merseyside-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Marged Sent: 18 November 2006 19:48 To: MERSEYSIDE Subject: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] PEACOCK I have today received the birth certificate of my great grandmother, Elizabeth Peacock, born 1847. Of course, the most interesting name piece of information on the certificate is her mother's maiden name and unfortunately this is practically unreadable. On Monday morning I will get on to Smedley Hydro (about 2 miles from my house, for all the good that does me) and no doubt they will send me a clearer copy.

Even though you didn't make your wonderful finds through this list, Jackie, may I say how happy I am that you are meeting your sister on Friday. I do hope you will become instant and firm friends.

Hi Jackie How lovely to hear that you're busy with recently-found family, past & present.

The list seems to have gone awfully quiet all of a sudden! Has everyone started their Christmas holidays early? :-) Gordon

I'm interested in RAISWELL in Bootle and from 1938 onwards in Liverpool. Does anyone have any pictures of the firm John A Hunter (famous for steak and kidney pies) or pictures of Childwall in the late 30s, 40s or 50s? I'm also trying to find out anything I can about the Home Guard unit stationed in Calderstones Park Look forward to hearing from anyone with information John Raiswell

Hi again Yvonne Believe I've may have found the second wife, if not the third :- Marriages 1899 Wirral Civil Thomas DODD and Susannah SUMMERS (Cheshire BMD ref WOO/27/67) 1901 Census RG13/3421 folio 6 page 5 Royal Infirmary, Liverpool Susannah DODD, private patient, 44, LAN Rusholme Deaths 1902 Woodchurch Susannah DODD aged 46 (Cheshire BMD ref WOO/15/97) As regards the "ninth child" I have in my tree the same 8 as you have in your list viz from Alice Margaret b1880 to Harold Walter 1900, but in the 1901 Census:- RG13/3387 folio 51 page 34 28 Grove Road, Hoylake Thomas DODD, head, M, 48, fisherman, LAN Liverpool Daisy, daur, 22, S, domestic nurse, CHS Hoylake Arthur, son, 13, CHS Hoylake Wilhelmina, daur, 10, CHS Hoylake Nany, daur, 8, CHS Hoylake Harold Walter, son, 1, CHS Hoylake If ages are precise then 22 year-old Daisy would have been born prior to April 1879, whereas the Thomas DODD/Mary Jane SHERLOCK marriage wasn't until 25 April 1879 (in Hoylake Holy Trinity). Mary Jane had of course been previously married to a William Edward DACEY (1872 in Liverpool St Andrew) and I'm wondering if Thomas DODD had also been previously married, Daisy being a fruit of his first marriage? Alternatively, Daisy might have been a daughter of William & Mary Jane DACEY's whom Thomas DODD had taken under his wing and came to regard as one of his own children?

Hi Walter If this has to be an 'open book' there is nothing wrong with my statement that Alfred is a descendant of JOHN GRAHAM 1876. Anyone can see that the inference is that 1876 is the start of the tree and that subsequent families lead down to Alfred. If Gordon had bothered to check with me first instead of airing his misunderstanding of the situation on the list the matter would have been made clear to him.

Hello Walter & William Just a thought. If your Graham,s originated in Ireland a visit to fermanagh gold Archives may bare fruit. There has been substantial input over recent months on the GRAHAM family.
