Lost Logans
« on: Wednesday 07 February 18 02:52 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for information re a TERENCE LOGAN born in Ireland. From his death certificate he died in Liverpool aged 61, his wife is named as Maria and he was a gardener, they lived at 20 Comus St Liverpool.
They had a son Edward Anthony and a daughter Isabella who may have been twins re info on the 1841 census that states both their ages as 15, birth abt 1826 in Manchester.
DO not know when Terence and Maria came to England
Isabella married a Charles Thursby. Edward married Hannah Hill in 1859,on the marriage cert. it states that Terence is a FLORIST.
Edward became a Chief Engineer working for P&O on the mail run to Australia.Have not found birth certd.
I have managed to trace 3 of Edward and Hannahs sons they came to Australia a daughter Florence died as a child. Two other sons became Professors 1 of Music and I Languages their names were Frederick b1886 and Edwin 1877 - 1938 but I do not know which was which,Edwin married a lady Dorinda.
 Frederick is a mystery like Terence any clues would be greatly appreciated by descendants here in OZ

...
Entirely possible that they weren't twins.
In the 1841 census, the age of persons over 15 was supposed to be rounded down to the nearest multiple of 5.
