Hi Pat,

Thank you so much for replying and for your search.

I have looked through the dates you gave me for graves for Michael Hogan and
I realised he was still alive at the time of his sons marriage in 1913 and
was living at Naylor Street.

Therefore, he must of been buried in either 1913, 1914, 1918 or 1921 as far
I am aware, it was at Ford? He would of been buried I assume with his wife
?Ellen.

Hope this helps?

Also concerning Emmanuel Roderiguez I would be grateful if you could
possibly supply me with the full details of the burials .

If your son does have time I would love photos of the headstones e-mailed to
me if possible. If he can do this for me I would gladly pay for this if his
details could be forwarded to me with method of payment.

Once again thank you so much for all your help.

Anne-Marie.

TO PAT NEILL

I have been trying to trace my ancestor Michael Connolly who is on the 1841 census married to Elizabeth. He was Irish and she was born in Liverpool. The eldest child in 1841 is 15 so I would assume they married in the early 1820s.

On your list I have traced the following;

CONNELLY MICHAELEM  & ELIZAM CONNELLY Married at St. Peters Seel St. PET

I wonder if this is perhaps the couple I want and I would be grateful for any information you could give me.

Thanking you in anticipation of your assistance.

Yours faithfully

Dear Pat;
Having found your website relating to baptisms at St. Austin RC Church, Grassendale I am requesting copies of two baptisms one of which I sincerely hope is that of my maternal ggrandmother Anne McGill. The particulars are as follows: McGill, Anna 07 May 1863 (Birth) 10 May 1863 (Baptism) father Daniel, mother Anne and a second entry - McGill, Anne 16 Oct. 1865(Birth) 22 Oct.1865 (Baptism) father Danielis , mother Anna.

Unfortunately I have been unsuccessful in relocating your website for further instructions but I do understand that I may be supplied with the baptismal documents free of charge but a donation is to be made to a charity of my choice. I am quite willing to fulfil that obligation as I am so appreciative of being able to obtain the above-mentioned documents. Please advise further on this matter. I have been looking for my ggrandmother's birth registration in the civil records for some time but with no success thus far. My dear mother is 91 years old and fondly remembers her Grandmother "Annie" who helped raise her in Liverpool.
Thanking you in advance for your assistance in this matter,

Yours very truly,

Thankyou for your assistance. Obviously this is not the record I want. I have found another one on the IGI. Maybe that is it.

Please could you tell me what is the Parish Church of Liverpool in 1853 and of which religion.?

Is the parish church of St. Peter the one in Seel St?

Would a marriage cert. for that period state whether or not it was Roman Catholic?

Thank you again for your help. I will make the donation to CAFOD as asked.

Patricia Padilla

Answer sent Friday 26th January 2007

Patricia,

The Parish Church (Church of England) of Liverpool was St Peter's in Church Street. Sometimes St Nicholas' church near the Pier Head was known as the Parish Church (Church of England) of Liverpool.

The established church in England is the Church of England (CofE). In the IGI, if the church is the establish church, then it would not mention (CofE). But if it mentions another religion; like St Peter's in Seel Street, it would say St Peter's Catholic or Roman Catholic church. Just to confuse things in Liverpool, there was also a Roman Catholic church called St Nicholas' (the Pro. Cathedral) in Hawke St. And to confuse things even more, I have seen records of the same couple being married in St Peter's CofE and St Peter's RC on the same day or within a few days of each other.

subject Re: John Carroll

Hi Patrick,
Many thanks for the information you have supplied, it's very much appreciated. Regarding a donation, for over twenty years we have sponsored a child through Save the Children Fund and have also supported The Pacific Leprosy Society since 1987. With this in mind, will it be acceptable to you if we increase our next donation to the Leprosy Society? We usually make a donation quarterly and are due to do so again in March. If not, we can make some other arrangement.

My parents John and Elizabeth Anne Carroll had another son who is not listed and I have an uncle not listed. I wondered if it would be possible for you to check these out. Francis Carroll died as a baby possibly 1933-1937 and my uncle Vincent Carroll died approx' 1952-1955. . One question that comes to mind regarding death certificates. Is the place of birth recorded and if it is, I would like to know where and when my father John Carroll (interment 5/4/1950) was born.
Many thanks once again

A donation to a charity of your choice is fine.

I did not find a Vincent Carroll in the Liverpool RC Burial Index.

You could try; Bob Halliday  <halliday.b?merseymail.com>, he does a search service for Anfield Cemetery.

Death certificates in England have very few useful family history details!

Hello Pat

I am looking for details of my Grandfather’s grave in Ford Cemetery. His name was Theophile Marchand and I think he was interred there in 1920/1921. If it helps, my Grandmother, Harriet Marshall was interred there in 1970, and there are also my two brothers, Alan and Peter in the same grave.

Any information which you could give me would be great, as I am researching my Grandfather’s side of the family. As you can see from the name, he is of French descent. Apparently he was born in Russia, according to his passport, in 1866, but this might only have been an issue date.

Thanks and Kind Regards
