I found a Maria Bokasky who died June 26 1904 and an Andrew Bogasky who died third quarter 1904. They died in a "workhouse". Is that what they called the quarantine stations? Can you please check if either/both those names are buried near Anna Bukowsky in Ford cemetery?
Thank you.Florence
Answer sent Saturday 2nd September 2006:
Florence,The only one of the above names I could find in the Liverpool RC Burial Records was:
Ford Cemetery
Section: X
Public Plot: 300
Anna Bukowsky
Southern Hospital, Liverpool L8
Age: 2 years
Interment: 21/6/1904
There will be no marker as it is a Public (Pauper) Grave.I can't answer your question about ' quarantine stations'.
There are no other BUKOWSKY's in the Liverpool RC Burial Index, this
could be due to mistakes, the name may have been spelt differently or
they could be in another cemetery.

Subject: MARY BAIN
Good evening,
I am researching family in Wigan area and I recently found an entry on lds and was wondering if it was correct.
Mary Bain born 13/03/1854 and baptised 18/03/1854 at St Patrick's, Liverpool.
Father Peter Bain (Baihn) and Margaret ?,
From census return of 1851 they had a daughter Mary in 1850, I didn't know about this daughter and I haven't found a death for earlier Mary.
I know Peter and Margaret got married in 1848 in Wigan area (am awaiting certificate). They are both from Ireland, is there anyway of finding out where in Ireland they are from ? Peter does not appear in the 1841 census, so must have emigrated to Britain between 1841 and 1848.I have only found 4 children for this family and this just seemed strange for a catholic family of this era to only have 4 children. There must have been more who sadly passed at an early age.
Is there anywhere I can check if this is another Mary Bain?
I would very much appreciate any help you can give me on this.

I found your e-mail address on-line and am most interested in the records available from Our Lady of Reconciliation. My g-g-g grandather and mother, William Wilson and Mary Maxwell were married there on 9 June, 1856 and I know that their oldest child, Eliza was born in Liverpool in 1857 or 1858. Can the churches birth records be searched to see if she was baptized in the same church and would they tell us her exact date of birth?

I apologise for sending this when you advise on your website that the service will be closed until September. However, I know that I will lose track if I don’t contact you now and am quite happy to wait for your response.
I am looking to trace my great-great-grandfather, Patrick Kavanagh who came to Liverpool in the 1860’s and married Ellen Power at St. Patrick’s church in Park Place in the Jan Quarter of 1869.
Patrick and Ellen had at least 4 children that I know of. My great-grandfather was Edward or ‘Ned’. Ned went on to marry Bridget ‘Bridie’ Brannen and they had at least 7 children, one of whom was my grandfather, Patrick Kavanagh.
I would love to know if the record says anything about Patrick and Ellen’s origins in Ireland or about their parents.

I have already purchased their marriage certificate Albert's residence at the time of marriage was 33 Jersey St. Bootle and Jane's was 26 Denbigh St. Bootle. Both Albert and Jane were Irish. Albert's father was Patrick Bardin (Pensioner) Jane's father was William Davies (Stone Mason).
I am not able to find a birth certificate for Albert or where in Ireland he came from.

Subject: Query
I would be very grateful if you could answer a query I have regarding an entry on the RC Marriage Index. I realise that the entry is covered by the L&SWL FHS but am not sure who to write to there.
I have checked on FreeBMD for a marriage of an ancestor of mine and found the one I’m looking for. It occurred in the December Qtr of 1861 and the site shows 4 people under the reference Liverpool 8b 398. These are Margaret Casslin, Thomas Hart, Catherine Purcell and Thomas Reynolds.
I know from a baptism record that my couple are Thomas Reynolds and Margaret Casslin. I have checked the RC Marriages Index, and whilst I can find the marriage of Thomas Hart and Catherine Purcell recorded as taking place in Holy Cross, my ancestors do not appear in the index at all. I find this strange as both these marriages have the same year, quarter and reference, so must have taken place at the same church.
I live in Yorkshire, so a friend of mine called to Central Library to look the marriage up for all the details. She was advised by the library staff that the records for Holy Cross between 1858 and 1864 are missing. I’m at a loss to understand how this can be when the people who have kindly indexed some of the churches have recorded at least one marriage which took place in 1861.
I would be grateful if you could shed any light on this query and advise me where I could find the missing records.
Many thanks for your help.
Kind Regards
Freda Elsden
Answer sent Sunday 3rd September 2006:

Sorry, I can't answer your query. Maybe the priest did not write the marriage into the church register. Maybe the transcriber missed the entry... The records for Holy Cross are held at the Liverpool Record Office, but they may at repair or available on microfilm only, see:

I hope you don't mind me emailing you. I am desperately trying to find my Father's parents and the only thing I have to go on is that my father was Baptised at St. Sylvester's RC Church, Liverpool 5 on 28th December, 1914. His name was John Radford born on 16th December, 1914. He was the 5th child of Patrick Radford and Margaret Roche. My father had four other brothers and one sister. When they were young they went back to Ireland. I know my grandfather was English but my grandmother was Irish.
Would you have any other records of perhaps their marriage or baptisms of my father's siblings? Their names were: Phillip, Nicholas, Leonard, Margaret and Frederick. I don't have any dates at all and have no living relatives I could ask.

Hello Patrick,
Just been introduced to your brilliant site by a member of Liverpool FHS.
Found my ancestors Thomas Lalley and Catherine Fearns without even trying!
However my query is where would RC inmates of the workhouse have been
buried? Mary Ann Lally died 25.2.99 and her Mother Catherine Lally formerly
Fearns died 9.9.81.
I support SOS Villages for Children and will send them a donation if you are
able to help.
Kind regards.

Lally,
I'm glad you found the site of use. I did not find a Mary Ann Lally (died 25.2.99) or her Mother Catherine Lally (died 9.9.81) in the Liverpool RC Burial Records. There are many are many burial grounds in Liverpool were they could have been interred. You could tried contacting Bob Halliday XXXXXXXXXXXXX, he does a search service for Anfield Cemetery Liverpool.

I found your details on the computer. I hope you can help me?
I am looking to trace my grandmother who was Margaret Bibby (nee Fagan) I know she was born in the Jan/Feb/March quarter of 1917 in Liverpool married in 1936 but died around 1940/41 ish . I know this as my dad has a younger sister who was born around 1940. I think they were from the Dingle area of the city.
I have been unable to find any death certificate notice on her, but my father recalls her dying around this time (he was about 4 years old). her next of kin would have been her husband Albert or her family who were called Fagan (possibly her dad Hugh).
I do hope you are able to assist, I would be pleased to donate some money to CAFOD - just tell me how you would like me to do this. Directly to CAFOD or at my Church in St Mary's Woolton.

The microfiche index to the Liverpool RC Burial Records goes from 1859 - 1989. For the year 1995, you would need to contact the RC Burial Board and ask them to check.
If you think Veronica is buried at Anfield Cemetery, you could try Bob Halliday XXXXXXXXXXXXX, he does a search service for there.

I think I owe you an apology, a few weeks ago I sent you an e-mail asking about a Bridget Maxwell buried in a public plot and who else was in it, I have since been told that a public plot seems to be a paupers grave.
As you will have guessed I'm not very good at this looking for relatives game. So for my stupidity I sent Cafod a cheque for £XX and I'm sorry to have bothered you with that one.If you could check another for me I would be most grateful?
They are my brother and sister:Annetta (or Annette ) M Maxwell, Aged three. who's funeral was on the 13 February 1937. death records L,pool 1st quarter
Vol 8 b page 58.Michael J Maxwell, Aged about two. His funeral was in the third quarter of 1931, death records L,pool
Volt 8 be page 60.Can you tell me please Patrick if the two names above are in the same grave and if so who else is in that grave. Our family grave is in Ford and my Father Michael Joseph Maxwell (1865 to 1951 ) is in it. I know there are other Maxwell graves related to us there but I don't know any details. It is possible that the two names above are in my Fathers grave and their names are not on the gravestone, or are they in one of the other related Maxwell graves. I hope you can help me on this one. I would go over and have a look but it is a 500 mile trip for me to do so.

Hello Pat:
I'm researching the family of John McQuade (1814-1872), livestock dealer, from Newtown Hamilton, Armagh, son of James Wade, farmer, and John's wife Mary Ann Cunningham (c1824-c1866), daughter of Patrick, a pig dealer, and his wife Elizabeth Cunningham. John and Mary Ann were married at St. Nicholas (C of England) 13 May 1840, after Banns, then residents of Key Street. Several children's births were registered from 1841-1851 after which time they removed to the USA.
I would think that Marie McQuade may find this information of interest. Any comments regarding further information on this family are welcome.

Hi Pat
You recently helped me with some recent burial plots for my family.
I was wandering if there is any possibility of you looking up the following names.
All my family have been married in Catholic Churches, so I am presuming they would
have been buried in Yew Tree or other catholic churches.
1) Samuel Sale - born 1847, still alive at 1905 - married to a Mary Ann (nee Scott).
They married 1872 at St Anthony's Chapel..... I have marriage certificate, would the
church records give any other information other than that on the marriage certificate.
eg, Fathers trade, where they were born, etc..... I see your records for St Anthony's
only go as far as 1865.
His father was Samuel Hodgson Sale, his wife was possibly Ann Rebecca.
Address at 1905 was 12 Croxton Street, Kirkdale.
2) Michael Dunn born 1882, possibly died back end of the war 1943/44. Children were
Michael and William. Wife Mary..... Maher- she left them when the children were
babies, so probably wont mention this. Lived either Ivy Lea or New Road West Derby
at the time of death.... both addresses were off West Derby Road. The other may
be his brother Jack Dunn.
If you need any other information please let me know
Thanks

Hello Patrick,
Can you help me.
I am trying to locate the the burial record of my ancestor Ann Foy.( only surmising she was wife of Patrick Foy as unable to find any records )
I believe she was born in Ireland approx 1838.
She was married to Patrick Foy. I found a record of death www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.plAnn Foy age 28 years Sept Quarter 1866 Liverpool 8b page 180.
I also found birth record of whom I believe was her daughter Margaret Foy born Sept Q 1866
Did she die in or after giving birth ??
Her husband Patrick was a widow 1871.
I think the Foy family were Catholics, but not sure. Is it possible to find burial record ? Ford Cemetery ?? perhaps.

Hi Patrick it's me again, I've been in touch with LVRO who have told me the
info I'm looking for will not be on the marriage cert. I've got the 1861
Census which shows that Henry Geary and Margaret Wolsey were married and
had children. It also states they were both born in Ireland ( that's the bit
I'm interested in) Is there any way I can trace where they came from through
Immigration records, perhaps?? If you can give me any tips it would be a
tremendous help. Regards, John.
Answer sent Sunday 1st October 2006:John,
If I were you, I would still ask the Liverpool Record Office for a transcript of the marriage Register entry, just in case there is some addition information.
You need to check all the Census entries, 1851, 1871, 1881... They might just tell you where in Ireland they came from..
There are no immigration from Ireland, as Ireland was part under English rule at that time.

To get an approximate date for his death, you could check the Liverpool (Kelly's/Gores) Trade/Street Directories for John Hughes a Wine Dealer. Once you know when his name stops being published, then I can check backwards from that date.

Dear Pat Neill,
I discovered the Hibernia pages today and what a wonderful resource! I am very interested in the Liverpool RC Cemetery Search Service, as I am hoping that it could solve a bit of a mystery for me.
I have a death certificate which I think could be for my great grandfather, Laurence (or Lawrence) Cleary, who died on the 12th of July, 1923, at the age of 29. He died at 144a Brownlow Hill, and Benledi Street is listed as his mother, M. Cleary's, address. My father believes that Laurence/Lawrence is buried in Ford cemetery, and if this is the case I may be a step closer to confirming whether this could be my great grandfather or not. In either case, your help would be very much appreciated.
