My grandfather was William John HEPBURN born in Bristol 1894. His father was William, one of at least five children. I have their names, one of whom was Sarah Jane who married John CAPLETON ( he was from Cheltenham) and they moved to Mile End Old Town by 1881 taking her sister Jane Ann with them. And then they all disappeared.....can't find them anywhere  ???

Hi Celia

My Mathews was William George, as far as we know he didn't have an relatives here, but there again I haven't been able to find his birth cert yet, so you never know. On the 1881 census it has him down as being born in Worcester. Also we don't know what religion he was.
Well, I went to the cemetery today, a few little dogs, and a man lurking near the old church building in the middle for no particular reason. I've not been to Birkenhead yet but hope to soon ( off to Liverpool for a couple of hours later this week for more research) and hope to get to the Maritime Museum next week.
Regards
Molly

Hi Celia

Thanks, I was floundering a bit at first on this site  ??? and pressing the wrong buttons
You've actually answered my question,in a way thank you.  My search for him was started quite a few years ago, and I then went overseas, so I'm starting up again. I had thought that there was a seperate plot for the mariners from the home. I remembered, after reading your message, that years ago I looked for him by going through the records at landican. At that time I had the wrong date of death, but now have his death cert. I will try to look at Landican records next week in the hope they can tell me his plot. Doesn't stop me being worried about the dogs :-) but I'll take my eldest with me. So if you see a nervous looking person with pen and paper walking around....:-)   Hope you won't mind if I come back to you for more advice, :-)

Regards Molly
