    Question Liverpool Record Office Look-up Request

    I am looking for GGGF and GGGGF information --
    James Moor(e)

    The lineage backwards starting with GGF

    James Moore 1870 father James
    *married to Elizabeth Patterson

    James Moore @ 1836 - father James
    *married to Catherine McGinn
    *looking for his birth/bap/death - he was alive in 1851
    but had died by 1861

    James @1805
    *looking for his birth/bap/death
    *married to Grace Bouch 1847
    *on marr cert James gives birthplace as Jersey and
    Grace gives Holyhead
    *probably married once before

    I truly appreciate the help if someone is at the records office and willing to lookup the information for the two James in bold.

    There is another thread relating to James

    I'm a little confused. If James MOORE born 1836 had died by 1861, how could he be the father of James MOORE born 1870? Could you give the census references & occupations for these MOORES? It may make it easier to find people with such a common name.

    Hello Wirral,

    Thank you for your reply. Yes, with all the James in the family it does get it bit confusing.

    *James Moore 1870
    DOB: 30/5/1870
    MAR: 11/1/1891 --Elizabeth Patterson
    DOD: 19/10/1955
    PARENTS: James Moore / Catherine McGinn
    married 3/2/1859

    *James Moore @1836 – father of James 1870
    DOB: estimate based on 1861 census where James gives
    age as 25 and born in Liverpool.
    1851 census: see below – living with parents James and Grace
    1861 census: living with Catherine, son John
    1871 census: Catherine, head, married and James is 8 months
    1881 census: James living with Catherine;Grace Moore living next door
    grandson James and granddaughter Grace.
    From this it was deduced that the mother of James 1836 was Grace.

    The census record for 1851 has James Moor 1805 married to Grace with son James age 14, John age 1. With the age gap between the children, it has been assumed the children have different mothers.

    I have the certs for James 1870 and the marriage cert between James and Catherine.
    I am looking for the bio information for James circa 1836 and James circa 1805 so
    I can order birth/marriage certs.

    James circa 1836 and James circa 1805 were both seamen.

    Hopefully, this clears the confusion. My head spins with all the James!

    Any advice discerning the birth of these two James is greatly appreciated - just looking for the information is appreciated!

    Kind regards,
    kptz
