Sorry I don't have any real information to give you Gordon, but those Aughtons from North Meols are almost certain to still be around the Southport area - it's one of those Southport names. I took a look in the phone book for Shorlicar but the nearest to it was Shorleson. There are, however, five Sherlocks in the area.

Hi Gordon As Isabel (below)was b 1772 did she die in 1779 not 1769 Pam "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a good looking and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, shouting - Wow! What a ride!" -----Original Message----- From: eng-merseyside-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:eng-merseyside-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Marged Sent: 11 August 2010 8:30 AM To: eng-merseyside@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ENG-MERSEYSIDE] AUGHTON/SHORLICAR/ECCLES/JONES/SHERLOCK Sorry I don't have any real information to give you Gordon, but those Aughtons from North Meols are almost certain to still be around the Southport area - it's one of those Southport names.
