Hi all,

william an Essie lived in Grasmere st all their married lives- can anybody help?
thanks gemma

Have you checked the 1911 census for them to establish birthplaces etc
Was Essie a nickname as there is no marriage with that name - what was her maiden name
Have you checked freebmd for any of the childrens births - mothers maiden name was shown from September qtr 1911 onwards
-
Could Essie be Esther Williams - see marriage on freebmd in 1908
www.lancashirebmd.org.uk shows marriage was at St Peters
-

i have found a birth for
gladys mum maiden williams b liverpool 1916
Margaret b liverpool 1911

The marriage is on the IGI Pilot website and was 23.8.1908 - fathers were Richard Hughes and Richard Williams
