I am trying to research the early life of a John Hines apparently born Liverpool 1873 of Irish Parentage, he died in Australia in 1958
Yet the only John Hines I can Find is a John Hines born 15th July 1870
(Sept Quarter 1870 Vol 8b page 24 Liverpool Mother's Maiden Name shown as Cain )
Baptism at St. Albans Liverpool 24th July 1870 Mother shown as Rachael Kane.
Marriage Search shows a John Hines Snr marrying a Rachael Cain at St. John's on 01/04/1868
The 1871 Census for Liverpool St Martins Dist. 55 shows at 4 Beacon Terrace John Hines aged 24 Born Liverpool, Wife Rachael aged 21 born Liverpool Son John aged 1 born Liverpool
Father Robert Hines Widower aged 50 born Ireland.
This all seems to fit,.
However, the next Census 10 years later 1881 I think I have the wrong Hines Family. Everton/Kirkdale Dist.32 for 41 Leyden Street has a John Hines Snr aged 44 born Liverpool Wife Rachael also aged 44 born Liverpool two Daughters Mary aged 8 and Margaret aged 3 BUT - No SON John who should be aged 11
Can't find them on 1891 Census anywhere
But 1901 Census for St.Aidans/Kirkdale Dist. 35 for36 Luton Street has a John Hines aged 50 born Liverpool but a Wife Rachael aged 52 born Perth, Scotland and a Son John aged only 15 and a married Daughter Isabella aged 20
Am I getting lost after the first 1871 Census ? Was John born 1873 under another Mother's Maiden Name. Could he be under HYNES perhaps ? Anyone any suggestions to help clarify please ?
