hercules surname

[ekell3]

Hi, I'm trying to trace my mothers fathers family whose surname was Hercules.

Her grandfather Joseph Alexander married a girl in 1873 called Elizabeth Cain who was born on the IOM.  They married in Liverpool where Elizabeth had moved with her family.

On the certificate Joseph's father is recorded as Charles a grocer, other than that I have no info on his birth or Charles

According to my mum her grandfather was Greek, all the men went to sea. There is a Charles Hercules apparently an African servant recorded in IOM but probably not a relation of mine.

Is there any trace of a Hercules in IOM pre 1873? thanks ekell3

I don't see any Hercules listed.
I am interested in Cain(e) research and would like to know the names of Elizabeth's parents.
I have a lot of IOM Cain(e)s in my database.
Please email me if you wish.

Hi, Elizabeth Cain's mother and father were Thomas Cain who was a tailor born Douglas Isle of Man about 1823 (he was aged 48 on 1871 census).

Elizabeth who was aged 50 was also born on Isle of Man in Douglas (1871 census) but on the 1881 census her age is recorded as 62

there is another other child, who was also born Douglas, Isle of Man- this info is from 1871 census is

Robert Cain aged 13

In 1871 the family were living Liverpol at 24 Howe Street Everton

I hope this is of some help..regards elaine
