Hiya Marged, Hubby did a search and decided that it used to be near the city center and that the University swallowed it up years ago because he found this: 5773 1791 Born roughly abt Elizabeth Fazakerley, Mrs. 1851 Census; April 07; LDS Film # 087186; Regis.

Hi Lainee - nice to hear from you The next street to Shannon Street (Duckinfield Street, where I had relatives) was right next to the Workhouse. The Catholic Cathedral of Christ the King now stands on that site, so your husband will know exactly where it is. Glad to be of help!
