My Great Grandmother Alice Anderson, was one of 13 children (12 girls and 1 boy) born around the 1860's, in the Perch Rock fort, in New Brighton, which was then classified as in Cheshire. I only have the names of one of her sisters, Sarah, and the brother William. Their parents were, William Anderson, who was a soldier from Aberdeen, stationed at the fort, and his wife, Alice Page. They all lived in one room of the fort. I've found an Alice Mary Anderson on one of the link sites, christened in possibly the right area, in 1863, parents William Anderson and Mary Page. It's possibly the same one and the mother was Mary Alice, and known as Alice. Anyway, I'd love to hear from anyone decended from one of the other sisters, but as I don't know their names, I can't search for them. I'm hoping they passed on this family background as they did in my family.
