Henry Smith, Ireland, Greenock, Liverpool

[jimcameron]

Henry Smith and Agnes Duncan were born in Ireland and married there, had a daughter Elizabeth and son James and moved to Greenock about1839/40.In 1851 census Henry was a sugar baker. Other family - William born 1843, Margaret Weir born 1847, Ann born 1849, Agnes born 1852,Mary born 1854 all born in Greenock. Family moved to Liverpool and Robert was born there in1857. In 1861 the family lived at 8 Lionel Street, Liverpool. Elizabeth and William moved back to Greenock where they married. After 1861 I cannot trace any of the family who remained in Liverpool so any help would be really appreciated. Henry was my great, great, grandfather.
