Thanks Jan. I have this one and subsequent ones relating to the family.
Of the two young children John Rock is the son of Mary Ann Mcleese although he was baptised as John McLise. The other child, Thomas, is Margaret's son. Neither were married although Margaret did marry the father of her child, John Cullen,

Mary had other children but the first three were baptised McLise and born in Liverpool Workhouse.
The later ones were christened Rock although I can find no evidence she ever married Micheal Rock the father.

Thanks

Hi,

About the 1861 census, if I'm looking at the right family in 1851 they are living at 7 Amelia Place, Tithebarn Street and in 1871 John is a Corn Porter. I have found this family in 1861 living at the same street as in 1861 and John has the same occupation as he does in 1871.

Transcribed and looks like MCALEEN but remember the enumerator would be transcribing from the forms he was given so mistrancriptions could, as you know from all the different spellings you have uncovered so far , be quite common.

What do you think?

Daisypetal I think, no I am sure, you have cracked it!!

Strangely I found an Andrew Mcsomething  in the births and deaths but dismissed it as I had no other leads to this name in this family. Margaret the daughter was a servant so would probably be staying elsewhere that night.

Brilliant.

My thanks and best regards

I must add that I have just typed up all the notes on this part of the tree with the 1861 missing and glossed over. This now gives a different dimension.
