1841 look up Liverpool please

[heywood]

I have a family - Patrick and Sarah for a friend from 1851- 1871.
They are sometimes Gavan/Goven/Gavin. They lived at 47 Hodson Street, Liverpool all this time.
We now belive that Sarah was Callagan/Callaghan - and indeed in some of the censuses are living with the Callaghans.
I wonder if some kind person, who has access to 1841 might look for Sarah/Sebina/Selina Callagan / Callaghan (sorry for all the variations). They were born Ireland so probably are not there!
Other members of the family are (from 1851) -
Catherine (head); Honora; Michael; Anthony; Catherine.
1851 references are: HO107/2179 folio 21 page 34
Thanks very much
Heywood

Hi,

I looked at all variations of spellings on 1841, looked at 1851, and bearing in mind Selina and Patrick's ages, they may not have been in Liverpool in 1841, they may have recently married before the census was taken, perhaps in Ireland, then travelled to Liverpool shortly after.

I couldn't find either of them in 1841

I will have another look.  Perhaps Catherine  Callaghan may be there in 1841.

All the best

Jan

It's really kind of you Jan - thanks.
I think probably they were still in Ireland in 1841 and came mid-late 40s re famine years.
Thanks anyway
