Hi Chickadee,

I am looking for Corletts in the West Derby area.

As yet I don't have an Alice Corlett but there are James, Margaret, William, Thomas, Mary Ann, Robert. Any of them sound familiar?

Thanks for the information.

How did you manage to find your great great grandfather if he was under a different name?

I have no idea who the father may have been. One story is that Isabella was in service for one of the prominent families in Liverpool and the son of the household got her pregnant???? Another story is that there was an army base in the Formby area around the late 1890's and it was one of the soldiers who got her pregnant????

Isabella's parents both came from Scotland and I have checked the records but still came up with nothing

I will have to keep on searching.

Thanks for looking.
John is Stanleys uncle. I have found the houses the families lived in in Formby. I will try & contact the vicar again.

Thanks for that.

I did go to the area earlier on in the year & the vicar said if I dropped him a line he would look to see if there was anything in the records for Borland but I never got a reply. Maybe it's time I sent him a follow up.

On the 1901 census Isabella is shown as living with her mother also Isabella at Willow Grove in Formby Lancashire.

I have no idea who his father is. I am told his birth certificate did have B****** on it.

On his marriage certificate he has put his father as William Borland but this was his ggrandfather.

How would I go about finding a baptism?

Thanks

Pat
