elizabeth connelly born 1873 birkenhead

[angel58]

elizabeth lived at 207 market street in 1881 ,,,, does anyone else have family history information on her???

[KGarrad]

You obviously have seen the 1881 census, and therefore know that Elizabeth was staying with her grandparents?

Connelly, James  Head  M  57  General Labourer  b Ireland
Connelly, Mary  Wife  F  52  b Ireland


In 1891 Elizabeth is a servant with the Crowland family
Reference RG12, Piece 2884, Folio 97, Page 41

I think this her marriage:
December qtr 1892
Liverpool district    Vol 8b, Page 188

Connelly, Elizabeth
Pearson, James

Because, checking all the potential grooms against 1901, this is them (I think!):

Reference RG13, 3433, 85, 2
Greystoke The Stables, Aigburth Drive, Toxteth Park

Pearson, James  Head  M  29  Coachman (Domestic)  b Birkenhead
Pearson, Elizabeth  Wife  F  29  b Birkenhead
Person, Ralph  Son  M  5  b Blundellsands
Pearson, Arthur  Son  M  1  b Liverpool
Pearson, Violet M  Daughter  1 month  b Liverpool

excellent ;; thanks,,,,,, violet was my grandmother,,,,, i have not been able to find out why elizabeth was with her grandparents,,,,, or her parents names

[KGarrad]

Going the other way, I think this is the family in 1871:

Reference RG10, 3745, 178, 12
Eldon Place, Birkenhead

Conley, James  Head  M  45  Dock Labourer  b Ireland
Conley, Mary  Wife  F  45  b Ireland
Conley, Thomas  Son  M  30  Dock Labourer  b Ireland
Conley, Patrick  Son  M  21  Dock Labourer  b Liverpool


There may well be other sons, but either Patrick or Thomas could be Elizabeth's father.


And this looks like her birth?

June qtr 1873
Birkenhead    Vol 8a, Page 451
Conley, Elizabeth

Buying the birth certificate would give you her parents names

there is a Thomas Conley marries in West Derby,Liverpool in 1879...6 years after Elizabeths birth so it sways toward Patrick Conley and Mary Ann McKenna being her parents...sorry ...but this is one of those occassions when it looks like a MUST to buy Elizabeths birth cert....
on BOTH sites it is CONLEY and not Connelly

Have you tried using www.lostcousins.com? If you enter the details you have for an ancestor in the 1881 Census, it matches you with others who have also listed the same census record, thus leading to descendants who may have "missing" information (ie from a family bible) or photographs to share.

If nothing else, I've found Peter's newsletter full of handy hints and tips for family tree research ... and a cracking read!

If the family were catholic then it might be worth seeing if you can access the Catholic Parish Register,  Prior to 1898 only Church of England, Jewish and Quaker marriages were recognised, Non-Conformist (including Catholic) required a Registrar to be present and are recorded as Civil Marriages
