« on: Thursday 28 April 11 01:45 BST (UK) »
Iam tracing the parents of Caleb Emerson he was born 1787-1789 place unknown married in 1818 in scotland and was buried on 26 11 1828 Everton Liverpool England he is in the same grave as two sons but as yet I still have not found his parents or place of birth.

Hiya Lynne
babtism 15th January 1826 at St Nicholas Liverpool ,Lancs
Elizabeth Emerson
daughter of Caleb and Elizabeth Emerson
abode Marybone
occ  surgeon........................did you have Elizabeth ???

babtism 10th June 1827 ...same church
Wellington Emerson   son of ......same parents
abode Hunter St
occ surgeon in the Royal Navy

this would suggest to me that Caleb - who married in 1818 ? didn`t come to Liverpool until 1825 ish, otherwise the other son would have been listed at St Nicholas church.....also...maybe he died at Hunter Street, as he would have been 40 at the time of Wellingtons birth...let me see if I can find the marriage for you

Hiya Lynne
www.familysearch.org     search ....advanced search

12th January  1818  ..Stranraer , Wigtown ,Scotland

Caleb Emerson to Elizabeth McKie

extracted record
so we know Elizabeth was from Stranraer .....where the ferry to Northern Ireland is based...do you think Caleb might be Northern Irish ??

Hi
i have Caleb dying  Bef. 26 Nov 1828 (burial date states his age as 38 only other information I have is as follows

IN the commercial directory 1820-1822 Caleb was operating a surgery in Dublin Ireland

My great great grandfather Caleb Emerson came to Australia in 1846 married twice and had 10 children (two not making it through infancy) This Caleb was born in 1821 in Dublin Ireland apparently he was the second son of Caleb and Elizabeth the oldest being Michael whom was born in Scotland in 1818 Caleb also had another brother Alexander born in scotland in 1825 Aledxander migrated to Canada married and had one child that I found called Welington b 1860 d 1861  Elizabeth was the 4th child and Wellington was the fifth

Burial: 26 Nov 1828 Low Hill Cemetery, Everton, Lancashire, England
