Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

Thank you Blue for your prompt reply. :D I will give a look at the microfilms and newspapers when I in Liverpool in November. This has been one of the greatest mysteries surrounding my Gr. Grandmother. I think I will order a copy of the death cert for Elizabeth, just to learn if it is the correct pe...

Sorry for the delay in posting a reply Blue. Yes, the death of Elizabeth Davis, age 61, Eldon Place is the one I am thinking could be her aunt.

The aunt, I think is Elizabeth Davis/Davies. Mary's (Snow) Hanlon's father William Snow had only one sister and she lived and died in Wales and Mary's mother Margaret, had one sister Elizabeth. I have never found a marriage for Elizabeth, and there is a death for an Elizabeth Davis, who is about the...

Thank you everyone for the information and fast response.

I have the civil marriage record of William Snow and Mary Davis, married on 30 Jan 1871. They were married in West Derby, Toxteth Park by Thomas Kelly, at St. James Chapel, R.C. Would anyone know if the church records for St. James Chapel are available or if the church still exists?
Thanks

Most of which have changed boundaries over the years. I am hoping to come to know Liverpool a little bet...

Thank you! I will try that.

Hello Everyone, I have seen specific neighborhoods in Liverpool mentioned such as Toxteth, Vauxhall, etc, in books and other Liverpool resources. I am hoping that someone would know if there was a map showing the boundaries of these neighborhoods and the streets included? Thanks in advance.

Would anyone know if 7 St. Paul's Square in Liverpool was some sort of boarding house?

Her niece Elizabeth Snow is li...
