My search is centred on Liverpool, although I now live in Southport. My names are Cors - very interested in this name as it belongs to my German Great grandfather, John Henry, also known as Johann Heinrich Kors Ingham - my own surname Peacock - great grandmother on my mother's side Sadly for me, the other names are Jones and Hughes. Have had no luck there! Marged

Good Morning I notice we have a number of new members on the list. Let's try and make things a bit more interesting, as there is not much going on at the moment. Perhaps all listers would like to send in the names they are searching for. Also, the districts of Merseyside they are interesting. This is a very wide area and I will send a map link so we can see how far we reach. Marged

My names are: Sunderland Kinrade Alexander McGill Gimre Davidons Mitchum Cheers, Marilyn Willette Pickering, ON, Canada

The names I am pursuing are: BARLOW JOHNSON HEWITT PHILLIPS Bob > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > ENG-MERSEYSIDE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without > the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > > > -- > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.1.409 / Virus Database: 268.14.6/536 - Release Date: 16/11/2006 > > To go to the site, click on http://lists9.rootsweb.com ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ENG-MERSEYSIDE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Hi Marged, all my husbands relations have a CH postcode wherever they are on the Wirral Peninsula - says I - very carefully - in case Gordon is reading. Personally I couldn't care less what my postcode is. I just wish we were recognised as belonging to some area! Your couisin can get a bus pass here - but not as good a one as you get - which also I don't think is fair - but there you go - that's councils for you - now don't get me going on that tack! Jackie I have a cousin who lives in either Great or Little Sutton, and she is pleased with the fact that their post code is CH and not L, but if she was a little way further towards Liverpool she would get a free bus pass (maybe she doesn't want one, but I am so pleased I have a Merseyside address! Of course, lost of Southport people would prefer to be in Lancashire rather than Merseyside, but not me! Marged

Hi Marj - thank you for the support!!! If I go any short distance North, South and West I am on the Wirral Peninsula, if I go east - then Gawd knows where I am - but right here - well I am nowhere! Jackie

Hi Gordon - well I am 'nearly' Wirral - Little Sutton. Although I have only lived here for three years - so a newbie. My husband and ALL his family come from here and live in Prenton, Bebbington, Wallasey and New Brighton, so a good spread. I still don't understand why the boundary of Wirral ends just at the end of the road when we are still well on the peninsula. It sometimes seems as though we live 'nowhere'. This area is hopeless for facilities, like news etc. Jackie

Hi May names that I have interest in within the Merseyside are: DAVID - Rock Ferry, Birkenhead and Liverpool McCANN - Rock Ferry and Wirral HUNT- Birkenhead TOTHILL - Liverpool LITHERLAND - Sefton and Maghull Had no luck with the Wirral, Merseyside names so far - Jackie

Can anyone please help me. For my family history I need to find out who was on the electoral roll at 36 Burns Street, Bootle in 1899 or in the few years before 1899. I would like to know both the owner of the property as well as all the adult residents this should all be listed on the electoral roll.. Thanks very much indeed John Raiswell Researching RAISWELLS everywhere

Hi Yvonne You and I are of course blood-related by virtue of the John EVANS/Mary SHERLOCK marriage in Upton-in Overchurch St Mary on 29 April 1766. However, I was most interested to see that in the 1901 Census your paternal SAUNDERS ancestors were living only two streets away from my maternal JONES great-grandparents who were at 8 Moore Street, Bootle. My mother (Laura WILLIAMS) was born less than a quarter of a mile away in 1915 at 103 Hornby Road, from where we were bombed out in May 1941. Spooky how our respective familes came to be so close on two separate occasions via two completely different branches? Regards Gordon >Hi all, >I'm re-posting my Saunders family interests.

Hi all, I'm re-posting my Saunders family interests. I would be delighted to hear from anyone descended/researching the same. I have much more background information, but at trying to update the early 1900s details. Walter Saunders b.a. 1869, Manchester married Annie Melina Matthews (born 9 February 1874, Birmingham) at St. John's Church, Wolverhampton on 29 June 1897. They had moved to 32 Southey Street, Bootle by 1901 census, and later Annie Melina Saunders lived at 196 Longmoor Lane, Fazakerly. They had the following children: Thelma Ellen Saunders, 1898, Buxton, Derbyshire, (my grandmother), married Thomas Christopher Sherlock on 23 October 1917, West Derby Registry Office. Frances Alice Saunders, 1901, registered West Derby (didn't marry) Walter Saunders, 1903, West Derby Elizabeth Louise Saunders, 1906, West Derby Frank Saunders, West Derby (1906?)(didn't marry) Lawrence Saunders, 1908, West Derby Harold (Harry) Saunders, 1910, West Derby (David) Philip Saunders, 1912, West Derby I have not yet found where their baptisms took place. Their father, Walter Saunders, left the family, but apparently had died by 1915/16, according to his daughter, my great aunt Alice. My mother told me a wonderful little snippet, out of the blue today. Apparently, Philip Saunders was a busker, good on the guitar and, at some stage, went to America and worked for Gene Autrey, who apparently did cowboy films. How on earth do I check this out:-)) I think Elizabeth Louise went to Australia. Mam thinks she married to a Jim Gard(i)ner, a master mariner. Lawrence and Walter possibly moved to Cornwall. Anyone with connections? Kind regards, Yvonne Purdy (nee Sherlock)

Hello Joan >Could anybody tell me where he might be buried? The most obvious place would be Rake Lane Cemetery, Wallasey, which is less than half a mile from Mariner's Park, but there might of course have been a place reserved for him in a family vault elsewhere. If you'd care to let me have his name, approximate date of death and (if possible) his likely religious persuasion, I'll see if I can find anything in the Rake Lane records next time I'm in Wallasey Library.

Hello Ron As stated at http://www.nautilusuk.org/ngen_public/default.asp?id=409 the accommodation at Mariners Park Estate has been provided for nearly 150 years or so by the NUMAST Welfare Funds Charity and its predecessors. To enquire as to whether or not there are any records of past residents and if so where and how they might be accessed I'd suggest you write to :- NUMAST Welfare Funds Nautilus House Mariners' Park Seabank Road Wallasey Merseyside England Telephone: 0151 639 8454 Fax: 0151 346 8801 Alternatively you could try e-mailing them at welfare@nautilusuk.org Regards Gordon Wirral UK From: "Ron Fitzpatrick" <fitzp369@iinet.net.au> To: <ENG-MERSEYSIDE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, November 10, 2006 10:02 AM Subject: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] Mariners Memories >Hi Gang, >Does anyone know who ran the Mariners Homes, how would anyone find >out >about any person that lived and died there? >Ron Fitzpatrick.
