Hello All Be advised if using O.S. XP, do not purchase FTM2014, they are not compatible. You cannot merge FTM with Ancestry. When you access records and then view you will be confronted with a black screen. I. E. is inbeded in FTM, and Ancestry have made changes to their site. There are no patches. ...

Hi
The nearest to 386 Scotland Rd is the pub called The Saddle Inn, which is numbered 381. Hope this helps! Also there is another pub with the same name if memory serves me right, on the corner of Vernon & Dale St.

Hello Southbank Kat
This is the benefit of our forum, there is always someone out there to put you right! As yet I've not made up my mind which family tree program to go for, but thanks for all advice.

Hello Southbank Kat What you put in your post is exactly what I require. I must admit I've tried to do what you suggested re. GEDCOM in the past, but for some reason it did not import.Maybe A..... had put restrictions on it. Anyway since then my desktop has had a few improvements, so I'll have anoth...

Hello Ed Officer & again DS Sorry :oops: I missed your replies. I will look into Gedcom as advised. My simple thinking is by editing in a new window (or system) I will be forced to look again at my previous input, and also add new material. I have by looking at my papers time and again found stuff o...

Hello DS & MaryA
Thanks for those tips. I shall certainly look into them.

Hello All I want to purchase a family tree maker,( or even a free one!) but I don't want A.....y. Could some one recommend one to me? Bear in mind I have read previous posts, and hope there is something out there which is tried, tested and up to date and does not connect to A.....y, and I can work o...

Hello MaryA
Thank you very much. That list will be most helpful.

Hello Bert

Regards, seeker

Hello Bert & DS I went to Liverpool myself to-day (giants and ships) I called into a pub which seemed to be numbered 18-16 Tithebarn St., with some waste land next door. The pub was called The Railway, a few yards down from a pub called The Lion. Across the road, facing the Railway pub was the old E...

Hello
Thank you for quick replies. The rel. name is Wainwright, John I think. I'm sure its no. 16. Some times its hard to remember what are facts whats hearsay, and getting dates right. But its definitely Wainwright.

Hello All I hope I've come to the right site :D Can anyone tell me the name of the pub that stood at 16 Tithebarn St. It seems there were a murder done nearby in 1874 by a gang called "The Cornermen" I believe a relative of mine ran this pub. I am thinking it were called the "The Rising Sun". Not su...

Hello MaryA
They were on the "members interests". I tried to contact them using their e-mail addresses but had no reply. I thought it may be possible to contact them using P.M. but that does not seem to be the answer. What next I ask myself
Kindest Regards to you MaryA

Hi I see he died at 77. He could have learned his trade in the navy. Would he have still been working in a hard job at 77? There was a rope works off Rathbone Rd. A lot of people in the Old Swan area worked there, one of the main employers in the area. If you key in "Rope works" an old picture shoul...

Hi Pat Berry Re. Baptisms. St Malachy's Church covered the Dingle area, and not Toxteth. Darnley St. was formerly Albert St. If I may respectfully point out 58/58a Northumberland St (1913) sounds like a big house. In those days courts were the norm for dockers and labourers (unless he was running a ...

Hi Hammer and Pincers pub at the end of Ditchfield Rd/ Liverpool Rd. behind St.Michael's C.of E. Church down a footpath. Its across the road from Hough Green railway station. The pub was renovated a few years ago, the small rooms were cleared and a more open plan was created.Netherley Rd. which is t...

Hi
The 1906 map of Toxteth is a help,but may I suggest to Pat Berry that if they have not tried it already, that going to http://www.liverpoolhistoryprojects.co.uk is a very helpful site. There they will find Liverpool BMD, maps with names of streets, churches, schools etc. Good hunting!
