Hi All, I am the g-granddaughter of George MORRISEY, b.c. 1845, a sea captain. He was born in Saint John but was back in England in 1891 where he settled. He married Mercy Connor McKenzie who is very well documented. His father, also George MORRISEY, b.c.1819, also a sea captain, was born in England, possibly Liverpool, and he settled in Saint John, married Catherine CONNOR and later Amelia Jane SEELY. I can find George junior in the 1871 census of Canada, various ship records and 1891 and 1901 census, England. I can't find George senior at all, except one Family Search record suggesting he was born in Liverpool. Any suggestions as to where I might find him? In particular, I began this research about 7 years ago and then had to stop to cater for sick parents. At that time I found a Museum (maybe library) online which had several records relating to George (either father or son). However I could not access them from England. I know the place was NW of Saint John and I believe it was located in the region of the Albert County Museum. But when I visited their website I could not find the records which there were references to before. So have I got the wrong museum or am I not using the site correctly? Any information or advice greatly appreciated. Christine
