I am looking for any information relating to John Weir. he was born in 1851 in Liverpool, and is listed on the 1851 census, but I cannot find any other trace of him! I have found a potential death date for him (1896) but cannot find any other info to back this up.

His parents are: Thomas Weir (b. 1821 Ireland) and Mary Ann Holland (b. 1833 Ireland). On the 1851 census, an Ann Weir (b. 1826 Ireland)is also listed, sister of Thomas.

I know Thomas and Mary Ann had 4 daughters after John:
Sarah Ann (b. 1853)
Mary Jane (b. 1858, married Charles Austin Sumner, moved to New Zealand)
Catherine Theresa (b. 1862, married Henry Waldron)
Elizabeth (b. 1865)

I would love some help on this!
Thanks in advance,
Crista
