Joseph John and Peter have mmn Gallagher

Here are some more children born to that combination in Prescot  (the region covering Widnes)

WRIGHT, VERONICA        GALLAGHER      
q3 1908  Volume 08B  Page 739

I can find no more in that region after that, but they could have moved. Looks like the marriage itself was in Bolton

Gallagher    Margaret         <<<

Many thanks Maabel for your response -are they related to Joseph,Peter,and Lilly if so which way??

[Mabel Bagshawe]

I am guessing siblings,as they have the same mother's maiden name. However the family is proving hard to find in later years to link them together. can;t find a Lilly as yet, but that's not to say it was a name used in the family rather than on an official registration document

Many thanks Mabel--good girl.
