Thanks very much. This is the MEGRANAHAN family. Parents William and Catherine. William b.Ireland 1854 and Catherine L'pool 1857. Married April 1881 in Bootle. Can't find on 1891 census. Children Joseph b.1882, William b.1885, Francis b.1886 all in Liverpool area. My grandmother Catherine b.1892 also in Liverpool so should be in that area on census but cannot find at all. Tried different spellings and only using first names. On 1901 census living in Chadwell St. Mary, Essex. Thanks Maisy

Julie, I don't believe it. I've just looked through pages of census and didn't see it. Must need my eyes testing! Just got my grandfathers birth cert to see where he was born and it was Gt. Howard Street. Thank you very much and I must make an appointment with the optician. Maisy

Trying to find FEENAN family on 1881 census. George Patrick Feenan and Mary Ann Tuft married in 1872. Their first child Elizabeth b.1877 and then John b.1879 both in Liverpool. Had another daughter in 1881 in Lancashire so should be in that area but unable to find them. I have them on 1891 census and 1901 spelt incorrectly but cannot find on 1881. Can anybody find them for me please? Thanks Maisy
