Liverpool Parish Registers including Catholics - ancestry

[kiterunner]

Lots of new Liverpool databases on ancestry today. I haven't got many Liverpool ancestors myself to look up so I don't know how good they are - hopefully some of our members can report back on their finds, please!

[Janet]

Are they having a free day of it? I don't have a sub either but I was in there just now looking at all kinds of things including original images.

[Tilly Mint]

Oooh, thanks Janet - must get back there now....Lol

[Tilly Mint]

No, not for me....just takes me to the 14 day trial page...

Get stuck in while you can, Janet :d,

[JayG]

That looks to be a huge collection!

Sadly I don't have any Liverpool ancestors either, would be interested to know if they have plans to add other towns/cities etc.

If you want to check whether anyone in your tree was born or died in Liverpool, so you know who to look up on ancestry, and your tree is on Genes Reunited, go to the "Search Trees" drop down menu at the top of the page on GR, click on "View people in your tree", and when the page loads, put "Liverpool" in for Birth place in the "Quick relation finder" and click the search button. I'm not sure if it finds people who got married in Liverpool that way, but it does find those who were born or died there.

Oh dear, Jacky, I'm just back at my computer and I apologize because I see I've badly misinformed you. I looked at my notes again and it's not the ancestry site at all, it's the National Archives of Ireland where I was so happily surfing (1901 and 1911 censuses). Was poking around for a possibly Irish ancestor, thinking her family name might turn up in Liverpool Catholic circles (it didn't), then thinking I should jump across and see what I could find in Ireland. I need to get my act together. Very sorry! Hope no one else has wasted time on this. :o

[Tilly Mint]

Janet, i jump all over the place when "i'm on a run".......i've done the same thing myself....many a time :)

Libby and I had a look last night for Catherine Dillon's baptism in 1818 and also her parents Patrick Dillon and Ellen Hanlan's marriage, but they did not appear. (She gave date and place of birth and religion RC on her shipping). We did find a baptism of Eleanor Dillon in 1815, parents Patrick and Eleanor, but cannot confirm any connection sadly. So a bit disappointed. It was worth a try.

I have some people who were baptised, married, buried in Liverpool according to registration but they are not in the parish records in ancestry.

[ElizabethHerts]

Do they include these:

I had a look for them as soon as I found out the records were online! And I had no luck either. I wonder if she was really born in Ireland?

[tenterfieldjulie]

Maybe Catherine didn't know Kite, but that was the information she gave on her shipping record on the "Heber". I was pleased initially as thought I had more chance of finding it in Liverpool than Ireland. She also put her religion as RC, although she married Thomas Gray, C of E at Prestwich. I had hoped if she was the first child, that her parents marriage would be in Liverpool too.
