You need to identify the source of your information.

".....John Reid b c 1864 and William b 1873..."  Where do you see these birth years.

".... Later records show both born in Wexford, son of Patrick..."
What are the later records, and what other information is on these records.

".... They are later found in Liverpool..."   Where and when do you see them in Liverpool.

If you are giving information from census records, can you identify the census?.

Thank you for your reply. I did say ‘crew list’  and ‘service record’ Also the marriage place of both men which gave the father as Patrick.

Thanks Wexflyer. That’s certainly given me something to work on. William’s date of birth is out from service record but that’s nothing new. Will look for the others and see if I can find Patrick and his family in the census.

Thanks again
