Mary Smith - a challenge for fresh eyes.

Sefton Park is an area in Liverpool which still exists today and is in the south of Liverpool.   Sefton is also an area but is nearer to Crosby etc.  You can use Google to check

Many baptisms took place at St Peters - which was in Liverpool town centre - irrespective of whether people lived nearby.

I have encountered baptisms at St Peters for people who lived in Birkenhead which is the other side of The Mersey

Thanks. I still cant find that entry with John Collins, or even any of them. Is it 1911

[CaroleW]

Birkenhead is Cheshire - are you using Lancashire in your search?

[wilcoxon]

Birkenhead, but still cant find John, Elizabeth,, Mary, John Smith even seperately. Very frustrating as the entry must be there but I m just not getting close.

Hi

I think Ancestry has the name transcribed as Frederick Tollins son in law of Mary Smith.
His wife is Elizabeth.

Free BMD(and Cheshire BMD) has a marriage in 1908 in Birkenhead for Frederick Collings and Dorothy Elizabeth Smith? This marriage is also on familysearch.

Hope this helps

Thanks, but Eliziabeth was baptised in 1881 with just one name, .
I would never have found that in a million years ,

I found a Dorothy Suaraz? Smith registered 1881 Birkenhead, but cant check for mmn. Away from home on the tablet and dont have log in password for GRO index Could it be another transcription error .
