Does anyone have any clues as to the location of Brick Field or Brickfield in Birkenhead back in 1871 somewhere in the parish of Holy Trinity. I have a 1909 Ordnance Survey Map but can't see it on that. Thanks, Alan Siddorn

Sylvia.... Go to http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/Liverpool/Liverpool-Central/stnicholas/index.html

Does anyone know how I would go about getting info for my Hugh Hughes and wife Elizabeth. I have info from the LDS site which I think is them. They were married on 22 April 1878 at St Nicholas, Liverpool. Does anyone know if this church is still standing and how I would go about getting a copy of this marriage. Kind regards Syl - UK

Alan. "I think that the son William STOTT may be buried in the CWGC grave at Flaybrick but am still trying to verify that." I had a simular problem until I found his service medals that had his service number stamped on the side, that made the connection to my grandfather complete. So do you know who has his service medals? The CWGC has service numbers listed with the soldiers name.

Hi Everyone, Am interested especially interested in the STOTT family of Birkenhead. I have them in the 1901 census living at 21 Greenfield Street, Birkenhead but would love earlier information. The father was William age 40 and mother Annie age 36 both born in Birkenhead. Children were Mary Elizabeth, Alice (my grandmother born 1887), Annie, Jane, William, Walter, Thomas, Ada Margaret and Charles. I know that Mary Elizabeth married James HAYNES and that their son Jimmy was killed in 1940 on the SS Lancastria at Dunkirk. I think that the son William STOTT may be buried in the CWGC grave at Flaybrick but am still trying to verify that. Also interested in the WEEDALL family originally from Witton cum Twambrooks then Poulton cum Seacombe and Birkenhead. HOLLAND family in Davies Street (1871) and then Sussex Street (1881 to 1901), Birkenhead (originally from Nottingham) and involved in watch and clock making. I know that in the 1894 Kelly's Directory that James Allcock HOLLAND as well as being listed as a watch maker was also shown a Secretary of the Birkenhead Workmens Tontine Society at Queens Hall. Any information at all would be very gratefully received. Cheers, Alan Siddorn

Sherdley Street ran between Crown Street and Minshull Street in the Paddington district of Liverpool 7, and Walnut Street is indeed close by, running between Crown Street and Mount Pleasant. 126 Smithdown Road was the address of Smithdown Road Hospital, where I was born myself! Marged I wonder if anyone can shed any light on the location of Sherdley Street. I have my McIntyre family living here in a railway owned property, from around 1940 onwards. I cannot find it on any maps although certificates state the Abecromby district - is this the university area? I believe Walnut Street (the McIntyre's previous address) is in the same area. Also, 126 Smithdown Road - is this the address of the Smithdown Road Institution, the old workhouse site? A relative died here in 1936 and it wasn't his home address. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
