I do know my mum has said they used to live at 21 Oak Street Birkenhead so that makes sense. For the life of me though I don't know why my mums dad is named James & Thomas. I am know as Chrissy but my birth name is Paula, could this be the reason? Thank you so much for your help, I am on my 2 nd day so don't really know what to do to find this info. I have a year to find out though :-D

The last known address for my mums family before she got married to my dad was 39 Craven Street Birkenhead. Ellen ( Nelly ) Boswell was the head of the house as their mum passed away when my mum was 15 so, Ellen ( Nelly ) had to look after the entire family.
