Hi Dave
well couldn't help with a census,but i had to go to the library anyway.So i looked through a few years of the postal directories for you. There were no Males recorded in the 1840/1/2/3 44 is missing none the 1845. In 1847 i found Sarah Male. Victualer,26 Neptune Street Birkenhead
1859.
Benjamin Male.Boiler Maker,18 Cathcart Street, B/Head
Elizabeth Male, Queen Street,Lower Tranmere.
John Male plumber and painter.22 Park St B/Head
1861
Benjimen Male, Blacksmith,18 Cathcart st
Mrs Hannah Male,65 Cathcart Street.
The death index for the G.R.O was handy so as it contains mostly 1800's deaths for the wirral, i had a quick look.It contains about six deaths for the Surename Male.Didn't take those down as you probably have them.

Hello again Dave-
I had al ook on the 1851 for Birkenhead- no 2 + no 4 Neptune St were occupied by families so I'm not sure whether 'The Mersey Arms' existed in 1851. There's no entry for 'The Mersey Arms' in the address index for the 1851 so I'm not sure that it was there then. Have a look at the photo(hope it turned out ok- if not I could send it again) could have been 2 houses originally-there are 2 front doors-what do you think?
My ggmother lived in no 8 which was the second house in the street - no 6 was the first which makes me think tht there were 2 houses originally(no 2+no 4) which could have been turned into the pub.
John Brien and Sarah were living at no 20 Neptune St with seven children in 1851and his occupation is Inn Keeper .
I don't know if you already kmow but Benjamin and Harriet were living at 26 Cleveland Avenue Birkenhead on the 1851.
Regards
Neptune
Regards
Neptune

Hi
Not sure if its any help but the 1850 Bagshaw directory for Birkenhead shows John Brien as landlord of the Mersey Arms in Neptune St, no number I'm afraid, but it proves it did excist in 51.
