Do you have William on the 1881 census - where was he born and does his birthyear confirm 1853 as per the marriage cert?

Is father James found on the 1881 census?

OK - this is complicated

Re: my reply above - you need sight of that 1852 marriage entry to confirm James's occupation was carver & gilder

From the IGI at www.familysearch.org

ARABELLA PHIBBS    Spouse:  JAMES O'BRIEN  Marriage:  02 MAR 1852   Saint Nicholas, Liverpool

It may also Help in finding the Right Death Record! (There were 8 James O'BRIENs died in Liverpool from Dec Qtr 1853 to Mar Qtr 1860 & 2 in West Derby Mar Qtr 1855 & Mar Qtr 1860)

[CaroleW]

The problem with deaths for that period is that no ages are shown on the index.

The GRO are withdrawing reference checking from 6th April which will make it very costly buying certs when you have multiple matches

Then we have to resort (If/When we can) to trawling through the Death/Burial Registers!

Hi

Thanks for all of the information in respect of the O'Briens - it really has been extremely helpful. I have only just started researching the family so at the  moment have little more than your responses. So thank you again, and will try and find more on the 1881 census
