Albert John Milligan is my great grandfather, his son Albert Malcom Milligan is my grandfather and his son John Malcolm Milligan is my father, his birthdate is 24th August 1928, I can update all this other information with accurate dates and other links and add this in the next few days, it is in handwritten form at the moment. We are linked to the James Milligan, he is the father of Albert John Milligan. Indeed you are right, from Liverpool the family spread to St Helens. Was Janet a sister of James Milligan?
I will type in from my handwritten notes in the next few days to make this more acccurate and complete,  The John Milligan who married a Micholas Nee Micholas MC Minnus. John Milligan was born around 1820 or 1821. The 1841 census shows this information. Further to this, it appears that this John Milligan may have been the link to Ireland, to Balleybofey in Ireland where there were many original Milligans in the early 1800's. He travelled across to marry, although it is beleived that when he grew old and his was widdowed that he travelled back to Balleybofey, where he lived to almost 100, as the story has been passed down my family. He is buried near to Balleybofey. Aparantly many Milligans also lived in Rapheo about 5 miles from there.
