I came to australia when 2 years old, one of 6 kids also. went back to Liverpool U.K. for 3 years from 1984. My Nanna Mary Smith (nee Halligan) would be your auntie? I met g aunt Lily (Lilian) she still lives in Bootle area. g aunt Margaret (Maggie) lived in wrexham in wales and was known as "Peggie the Post" as she must have worked in the Post office. g aunt Frances (Fannie) she visted Nanna when I lived there and we went to Fleetwood where she was living at the time, your cousin Heather still lives in Fleetwood. g aunt Kathleen (Kitty) owned a pub in Liverpool, I never got to meet her. I vaguely recollect meeting James (Jimmy) or William (Billy) but not sure. Mum remembers a Josie Brierly (not sure of spelling) is that you?? My Mum & Dad lived next door to each other in Ajax St,Kirdale/Bootle - it's name changed to Argos place in the 1970's. My Auntie who also lives down under, said she does not remember having any Grandfathers on her mothers! side, so dont have much info on that.
