Benjamin Roberts b 1795 c
« on: Monday 02 July 12 05:53 BST (UK) »
I am researching Benjamin Roberts b 1795 c  Flintshire - what I do know is he moved to Liverpool Lancashire  and that he had a daughter Maria Roberts b 1828c Liverpool on the marriage  certificate of his daughter Maria his occupation states he is a Bookeeper.On the 1851 census he is living in Liverpool Workhouse.
Now my question is can anyone help me to find his birth in Flintshire-as iI have hit a brick wall.What is dissapointing I have tried to find the Jewish family connection on this side of the family tree and  having no success at all.

On the 1851 census he is living in Liverpool Workhouse.

On the 1851 Census he states his birthplace as Holywell, Flintshire.


On the 26th November 1794 a Benjamin Roberts is baptised at Holywell, the son of John & Cathn Roberts.
(source the parish register of baptims Holywell, Sept 1794-Feb 1795, page 5).
