Wexford / Michael, Caleb, John Margaret and Ann Emerson
« on: Saturday 02 September 17 09:44 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,
i need help finding the birth parents of one Caleb Emerson born around 1790 died 1828 Liverpool England i have found little information on him except he was in the Royal Navy married Elizabeth McKie Scotland and have several children in different countries. Iam going on the assumption that his father was Michael as his first born son was named Michael Willington/Wellington Emerson who was born in Dublin. I do have information that a Michael Emerson from Erdmine Wexford  wife Margaret had three children Caleb, John and Ann this was from a will which stated that Margaret Caleb and Ann were deceased i think it was Michaels will dated 1856 my Caleb died in 1850 so he seems to fit. Any help find his parents would be truly appreciated

Family History Beginners Board / Caleb emerson
« on: Tuesday 14 March 17 01:23 GMT (UK)  »
Its been several years trying to chase the origins of Caleb Emerson born c1794 died 1828 in Everton Liverpool England. Caleb married Elisabeth McKie is Scotland in Jan 1818 and had the first child Michael late Dec 1818 in Scotland he and his wife had several more children in Scotland, Ireland and presumably in England where they were christened. Caleb was a surgeon in the Royal Navy and possibly in Dublin. He is buried in a joint grave with 2 of his sons in the Necropolis Everton. Caleb's son's Caleb came to Australia and Alexander went to Canada his daughter and wife both Elisabeth returned to Scotland after his death in 1828. His wife died in 1856 in Inch Wigtownshire Scotland and his daughter seems to have disappeared. If any one has any info on Dr Caleb it would be great I know of several ships he was on but do not have his parents whom I love to find
kind regard Lynne

Wexford / IS Caleb Emerson from Wexford
« on: Thursday 23 June 16 15:15 BST (UK)  »
I have been trying for many many many years to find my ancestor Caleb Emerson. I know he was a surgeon in the Royal Navy from around 1812 but he was a Doctor in Lancashire until his death in 1828 at the age of 38. He married Elisabeth McKie in  January 1818 in Scotland and had Michael Wilington Emerson (Stranrear Wigtown shire) the same year, then moved to Ireland where his 2nd son Caleb 1821/22  (Dublin)was born then back to Scotland for the birth of 3rd son Alexander 1825 (Stranrear Wigtown shire) next I found them in England where their daughter Elizabeth and another child Wellington were christened but I do not know their birth place. My problem is I have no birth place or parents for Dr Caleb I know where he died and that he is buried with his first and last son in the same grave in Everton Lancashire. I have in the past been given some information of a Caleb being the son of a Michael and Margaret Emerson from Edermine Co Wexford  but nothing concrete birth date etc. I feel that this Micheal is the father of Caleb as with tradition his first son was called Michael second Caleb and third Alexander (Elisabeth father is Alexander). If anyone can help it would be fantastic. There is no other Caleb anywhere around the world that fits the time frame. In Wexford I found a Caleb and Rose Emerson around 1766 this could possibly be the grandparents.

Dublin / Micheal Emerson/emmerson
« on: Thursday 06 February 14 00:38 GMT (UK)  »
Iam looking for any information of Micheal Emerson/Emerson birth place unknown married Margaret ? had three children that I know of John, Caleb and Ann Iam mostly interested in Caleb his birth year date and birth place. As I have a caleb born around 1790 place unknown I have not been able to trace him to a birth place I am going on a hunch that he named his first son Micheal after his father. Someone did send me information that there was a Caleb born to a Micheal and Margaret Emerson in Wexfield ? Ireland Caleb died in 1828 in Everton Liverpool he was a Surgeon with the Royal Navy any help will be gratefully received
