    Ford Cemetery Lookups


 

From: bosie

Subject: MARY ANN MCCABE

 

Dear Pat,
I wonder if you would be able to look up in the Ford, Yew Tree and Ainsdale RC cemeteries for me?
The full name is: 

MARY ANN MCCABE (my Grandmother)

The Cemetery is unknown, but the above three have been mentioned due to their proximity to Walton Hospital where she died and 59a St. Johns Road, Waterloo, where she lived.
The date of death was 8th July 1967
Age was 78
The address was as above 59a St. Johns Road, Waterloo, Liverpool.
Thanking you in advance,
Rosie

Answer sent on Sunday 2nd October  2005:

Rosie,

I did not find Mary Ann McCabe (death 8th July1967) in the Liverpool RC Burial index.

Regards,

Patrick

Dear Patrick Neill,
                                Please forgive this unsolicited email. I
was hoping you could tell me where I might find some information on
marriages solemnized in St Nicholas -  the marriage records for 1826?

Thank you for your time in this matter.

Yours sincerely,
Chris Bernard

Chris,

There are marriage records for two St Nicholas churches held in the Liverpool Record Office. For the RC church which started in 1827, see RECORDS OF ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCHES HELD AT THE LIVERPOOL RECORD OFFICE:

&

Liverpool Area RC Marriage Index Home Page:

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hibernia/mar/mar.htm

The CofE church records started 1754, some of these appear in the Latter-day Saints (Mormon) IGI, see:

Subject: R.C Burials Look up Request Please

 

Dear Pat
I am hoping you can please help me with this one.
I am trying to locate the burial ( & then the death date) of my gt.gt.grandmother.
I believe her name was Sarah O'Neill, but it has been written as Neil, O'Neale & O'Neil at various times.
She has also been referred to as "Mary" although I don't think that was her real name.
Her husband was Patrick/Peter O'Neill & he deserted her in 1867, sailed for Australia, & to my knowledge never saw her again.
Patrick & Sarah were married at St Anthony's R.C. Church in 1853.
In 1871 I think she was living with her son (James) & daughter (Mary) in Latimer Street, Liverpool.
Her daughter married on 1/7/1878 & was living in Silvester Street at the time of her marriage.
Her son James sailed for Australia in Oct 1878 & she had died by that time.  According to family "lore" she died in the 12 months before his leaving for Australia, but I cannot verify this.
She died sometime between the 1871 census date & Oct 1878, most likely in 1877.  She was born in Ireland  c.1835.
She was very poor & may have been buried in a pauper's grave.  She was definitely of the Catholic faith.
 
I'm sorry I haven't been able to supply better information, I have been unable to locate her death on the GRO Index, hence my desire to find not only where she was buried, but when?
Thank you very much for your generous offer of assistance.
Those of us who can't visit the Liverpool record office certainly need it!
Regards
Judy Smith

Answer sent on Monday 10th October  2005:

Judy,

I checked the various spelling but could only find this Sarah who was about the right age: 

Ford Cemetery
Section: SJ
Public plot: 1213
Sarah Nealan
30 Gore Street, Liverpool L8
Age: 44 years
Interred: 3/5/1877

But Gore Street is in St Patrick's parish, which is south of the city centre. The church and address's you give are north of the city centre...:

It's me again!
Just a thought.
Is it difficult to discover who else is buried in the plot?
I see it's "public plot" does that mean others buried there are
irrelevant/coincidental?
Thanks once again for your help.  I wish the Liverpool Record office was
just a touch closer!
Regards
Judy

Answer sent on Tuesday 11th October  2005:

Judy,
There are 31 people interred in the Public Plot (SJ 1213). Another name for a Public Plot is a Pauper Grave. A Pauper Grave is a pit were coffins are buried very close together, they people buried there are not related to each other, they where just buried together as there was no one to pay for a private plot.

Patrick

Dear Pat

Just browsed through your excellent web site and wondered if you could help me
locate my 3 x great grandfather James Gibbons and the children of what might
be his second marriage.

James Gibbons - Margaret Sullivan (wid Connolly) (MAR) (between 1854-1863)

Bridget Gibbons  - Michael Connery (ANT) (from 1878 onwards) (Marie McQuaid)
Bridget Gibbons  - Michael Kelly (PET)) (Marie McQuaid)
Bridget Gibbons  - Thomas Dwyer (PET) (Marie McQuaid)

Catherine Gibbons - Walter Merlin (ANT) (from 1878 onwards)
Catherine Gibbons - Joannem Hogan (JOS) ( Josie McCann)

Sarah Gibbons - Patrick Roddy (ANT) (from 1873 onwards) (Marie McQuaid)

As a matter of interest, is there any other information with
the parish register or will I have to get the marriage certificate to find out
ages, occupations and fathers' names.  Sorry to be so ignorant.

Please let me know what donation you require.

Many thanks for your time and efforts - I'm really hoping that this
is the information I need to help me knock down a long standing brickwall and
find my 3 x great grandfather.

Best wishes

Barbara,

Here are the only details I have on these marriages:

GIBBONS, JAMES & MARGARET SULLIVAN(wid.CONNOLLY), 10 FEB 1850, St
Mary's RC church, Highfield Street

GIBBINS, BRIGIDAE & PATRITIUM McGOVERN, 7 JUL 1874, St Patrick's church
GIBBONS, BIRGITTAM of IRELAND, MAYO & JOANNEM REILLY, 15-May-1861, Holy Cross
GIBBONS, BIRGITTAM & JACOBUM ASHTON, 5 AUG 1860, St Nicholas 
GIBBONS, BRIDGET & MICHAEL CONERRY, 06 JUN 1852, St Anthony's
GIBBONS, BRIDGET & MICHAEL KELLY(wid.), 23 APR 1854, St Peter's Seel Street
GIBBONS, BRIDGET & THOMAS DWYER, 22 JAN 1854, St Peter's Seel Street

GIBBONS(wid.DEVERIX), CATHERINE & GEORGE SHAW(wid.), 13 MAY 1838, St Nicholas 
GIBBONS, CATHARINE & WALER MERLIN, 11 JUL 1852, St Anthony's
GIBBONS, CATHERINAM of IRELAND MAYO & JOANNEM HOGAN, 17 JUN 1860, St Joseph's 

GIBBONS, SARAH & PATRICK RODDY, 3-Oct-1848, St Anthony's

The information in the RC Parish Registers varies from one church to another and one Priest to another. Some give very little information (St Mary's & St Peter's), other sometimes give additional information like an address's in Ireland and the mother's name (St Anthony's & St Patrick's). It's all a bit of a lottery, you don't know what you will find, until you take a look.

Dear Patrick
Sorry to be bothering you, but I have been searching the Free BMD just using
the Christian name Sarah & I found a Sarah Tinckler, 36 years, died West
Derby, March quarter 1877.

My Sarah O'Neill was a Tinkler before her marriage, & as she had been
deserted by her husband, it's possible that she changed her name, although
unlikely in those days.

When you have time ( I realise others will be waiting for your help) would
you please check to see if this Sarah Tinckler is buried in a Catholic
cemetery.

I am thinking of applying for the death certificate, but the only real
knowledge I have of my mystery gt grandmother is that she was a devout
Catholic.

See, Liverpool Area RC Cemetery Search Service:

I have on microfiche the combined index to FORD, YEW TREE & AINSDALE RC Cemeteries 1859 - 1989 and the plot records. The index contains over 250,000 names, mostly of Irish descent. I am willing to search these records,
I require the following:

If I am successful, all I ask is that you send a donation to CAFOD (Catholic Fund for Overseas Development) or any famine relief charity of your choice.

An example of the information from the combined index:-

Hello  Pat

I've just visited your website and I'd be more than happy to make a donation to charity whether or not you are successful with this request. I'm looking for the grave of John Miles Sumner and his wife Mary Ann. Their son Thomas may be with them. 

I would guess that John died after 1930 and his son maybe 20 years later but I've no idea about the wife. John was born 1875 if that's any help. Family legend suggests they are in Ford cemetery. Can you help please? Elaine

Answer sent on Monday 24th October  2005:

Elaine,

I did not find John Miles Sumner in the RC Liverpool Burial Index. There are two Thomas Sumner's, but they are too early, both in Ford Cemetery; one was buried on 10/9/1928, the other was buried on 9/7/1878.

No donation required.

From: "Barbara Laska" 
Subject: St. Patrick's R.C.Church Marriage Index.
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2005 15:44:30 -0700

Dear Mr. Neill,

I am researching my family history, and have arrived at St. Patrick's Church
Marriage Index.

I was born in Liverpool  and my maiden name was KILTY, my father was JAMES KILTY, grandfather JAMES
KILTY
, and great-grandfather also JAMES KILTY!

It is regarding my great grandfather that I am writing to  you.

I have recently received the marriage certificate  from Liverpool for my
great grandparents James Kilty  AND Catherine Quinn, showing the date of
their marriage 24 June 1877 at St, Patrick's Chapel - which has also enabled
me to find the names of my great great grandparents - Patrick and Rose Kilty
 of 23 Rockbrook Street, Toxteth.

James Kilty  was born in Liverpool, however Catherine Quinn  was born in
Ireland, and I am wondering if the church register would show which part of
Ireland she came from?

Patrick and Rose  were also born in Ireland - would there be any indication
to where they came from in the register.  I am not sure if they were married
when they arrived, or if they also married at St. Patrick's?
There are other Kilty's in the index, two Patrick's but not to a Rose, so I
am not sure about these as I do not have her surname.    Patrick was born
abt. 1816 and Rose abt 1823 in Ireland?

Regarding Christenings at St. Patrick's, is there an index, and also a
burial index.  I am not sure either if there is a cemetery at St. Patrick's.

I would be very grateful if you could provide any information, or
suggestions or where to go from here.

I will look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks

Yours sincerely,

Barbara (Kilty) Laska

Subject: RC Baptismal records L'pool

Dear Pat Neill.

I found your name attached to a RC mostly Irish marriage index for
the L'pool area and I decided to ask for your advice.  I hope that
you will not mind.

I have been trying for some years now to trace the birth of a
relative of mine born in Liverpool according to her entry in the 1901
Irish Census and, if I remember correctly a letter of my mother's
received when I lived in the West Derby area in the 1950's, born more
particularly in West Derby. Unfortunately I can find no trace of her
in the Births Index so I am reduced to finding a baptismal record.

Do you know whether indexes of RC baptisms for  L'pool exist and if
so where they are kept?

Do you know of a person whom I could request to carry out the
research on my behalf?

Details:  Henrietta Milner
         Born Liverpool (West Derby?)
          March 1883 - March 1884 seem most likely from 1901 Census.
          On March 31st. 1901 she was an orphan and gives her age as 17.
          Father's name: Henry Milner. Mother's name: Margaret Smith

I am certain that she would have been baptized shortly after birth
since that was the strong custom of her mother.  The family was in
Dublin in February 1879 when a child was born there and again in June
1884 when this child died.  They do not appear in the 1881 U.K.
census.

With apologies if I have imposed upon you.

Noel,

The only person I know who has indexes of Liverpool RC baptisms is Marie McQuade, see:

http://www.geocities.com/liverpoolregisters/RCBAPS.html

Marie has not used emails for a long time. You could try writing
to her, here is her address:

Miss M. McQuade BA

Subject: re Irish in Liverpool

Hello , I am researching the Murray family , Peter Murray and his wife
Bridget Dobbin, two of their sons John Peter Murray who was sent to
Tasmania for theft of a haunch of Venison in 1837 and his brother
William who came out to join John, both men have their parents names
on their death certificates, and that they came from Ireland and the
boys were born Liverpool UK.

I would assume these folks were RC being Irish indeed John is buried
in the RC section in Melbourne General Cemetery Victoria Australia,
maybe you have their names in RC records? Another brother moved to
Leeds.
the boys John born 1820
William born 1834
Henry born 1808
I know there is a huge gap in ages which leaves me to think there are siblings
Thank you
Suzanne

Answer sent on Monday 31st October  2005:

Suzanne,

I checked the Index to the RC Burials Board of Liverpool and found the following.  But I suspect they are a bit young to be the Peter & Bridget you are looking for:

Ford Cemetery
Section: DZ
Public Plot: 181
Peter Murray
Crosshall Street, 3 Court Liverpool L2
Age: 60 years 
Interment: 21/9/1864

Bridget Murray
Ford Cemetery
Section: SJ
Public Plot: 449
Bridget Murray
Addison Street, 33 Court, Liverpool L3
Age: 63 years
Interment: 22/11/1872

The Index to the 1851 Census of Liverpool shows these two possibilities:

MURRAY BRIDGET - IRELAND, 304A 2178/2
MURRAY PETER, LABOURER ,IRELAND, 304A 2178/2

MURRAY BRIDGET, HAWKER, IRL. MAYO, 782A 2178/4
MURRAY JOHN, SCHOLAR, IRL. MAYO, 782A 2178/4
MURRAY MARY, HOUSE SERVANT, IRL. MAYO, 782A 2178/4
MURRAY PETER, LABOURER, IRL. MAYO, 782A 2178/4

Hi Pat.

I was wondering if you help me?

There's a brass plaque in St Anthony's of all the men that died in the
1914/18 world war.

I was wondering if St Anthony's itself would hold information on the men and
what ship they might of died on etc etc, as I have no luck anywhere else.

I'm looking for a Patrick Whelan who is on the Plaque it's self..

Thanks
Maxine.

The email address for St Anthony's is:

But I don't think they will have any information.

Have you tried the Commonwealth War Graves Commission:

Dear Pat,
I have found a death for a Sarah O'Neill in the Free BDM index, for June
Quarter 1879, West Derby.
Would you mind having another look for me, to see if you have a
corresponding burial in your cemetery index.
This year is later than I would have thought, but everything else has been
"not quite right" so why not?
I would like to apply for the death certificate if this Sarah O'Neill is
buried in Ford Cemetery.
Many thanks once again.
Best wishes
Judy
PS. I hope you don't mind, we have donated to The Salvation Army Overseas
Relief Appeal.

Judy,

I did not find a Sarah O'Neill in the Liverpool RC Burial Index for the year 1879.

No donation required.

Subject: St. Albans church Records

My name is Emma McFall and my mother's family were from the Vauxhall
area - Lower Milk Street, Bond Street.  They were a Catholic Family
and my mother was born in 1900 her name was Emma Cashman and she had
one brother Edward, and two sisters Catherine and Annie their parents
were born in Liverpool to Irish parents.

My great-grandparents were from Ireland but I do not know the area
they were born in. They were married in St. Albans church in 1893 and
what I would like to know (if possible) is where can I find the church
records, did they go to Central Library?

I would also like to find anything about the Cashman/Kenny family who
both lived in the area.

I am working on my family history and have found information on the
census but would like to know more about schools the family possibly
went to etc.,

Many thanks, any information would be most gratefully received.
