    hi,

    Was wondering if anyone has access to this directory, and would be willing to look up a couple of families for me?

    All help appreciated.

    Many Thanks

    Hi Carol,

    Many thanks for your reply and your kind offer, now i have never seen one of these directories so am unsure how/what you need to do your searches..

    If it's by address;-

    I am interested to find out who was living at these addresses,
    4 in 5 Court - Prince Edwin Street, EVERTON
    7 Sheridan street. EVERTON

    OR if it's by names;-

    ROGER KENNY B-1856/6
    JOHN WILLIAM KENNY B-1885
    SARAH KENNY Or NOON B ??? UNKNOWN BETWEEN 1881-1900
    HANNAH/ANNA KENNY OR KELLY - B 1891

    Can't tell how much i appreciate this, many many thanks

    Hi!

    The directory is listed in address and name orders but the results have been mixed.

    As for the addresses, the roads are listed but there is nobody at the house numbers you mentioned, although I wasn't sure what you meant by "4 in 5 Court" - is that part of Prince Edwin Street?

    I couldn't find a Roger Kenny, a Sarah Kenny or a Sarah Noon.

    There were several John Kennys but no John "William" Kenny;

    Kenny John 17 Pickwick Street
    Kenny John bootma. 81 Rocky la, Anfield - res 3 Goth st
    Kenny John fried fish dealer 49 Cavendish road, Walton
    Kenny John fried fish dealer 71 Woodchurch road, Oxton
    Kenny John grocer 12 Eldon st Birkenhead
    Kenny John mariner 30 Herbert st Walton
    Kenny John painter 7 St Ives grove, Stanley
    Kenny John plumber 35a Gildart st
    Kenny John switchboard attendant 16 Boundary road, Port Sunlight
    Kenny John traveller 61 Cranbourne road

    There were 3 Hannah Kellys;

    Mrs Hannah Kelly, 1 Albert road, Tranmere, Birkenhead
    Mrs Hannah Kelly, 51 Bulwer street
    Miss Hannah Kelly, 4 Wyresdale road, Walton

    I will keep my fingers crossed that the people you are looking for are amongst those!

    There is also a listing in the directory of people according to their profession, so I could cross-check in that section for you if you let me know their professions.

    Hiya Carol,

    Many thanks for your time.
    I only really know vague address for Roger, don't knoe where Hannah Kenny and Sarah noon lived.

    The 2 addresses i gave you were definates from a death certificate we have. BUt this was in 1903.

    Prince Edwin Street along with many more in Liverpool were divided up into court houses. I suppose they were like tiny flats/bedists housing numerous families, they all had there own number.

    The addresses for all the John Kennys, i can't confirm either as i have nothing subastantial yet about him, for the past 20 years we have been looking for WILLIAM KENNY, but now it turns out he could have been JOHN WILLIAM !! - I will print them off though and keep, should we find him elswhere, and apply for any certs.

    Doesn't this family history just "do your'e head in!", its like looking for a needle in a haystack....................does to me, as i am looking for KENNY/KELLY's in Liverpool !!

    Much appreciate your time, and thanks again.
