Good morning Mike, Your information on the West Derby Union Workhouse for the Sick Poor is of great importance to me. My great-grandfather was an inmate there in 1881 and I have been trying to find records relating to this institution. I will be doing research in Liverpool on Feb. 16 and 17 (at Wirral Archives - as his wife and children were in workhouses there at that time). I will be staying at the Britannia Adelphi and wondered if the records are in the library which I know to be near that hotel.

What a find! I keep being drawn back to the Liverpool area in my family research work (the latest area of interest is West Derby in the 1850s) and I came across this website by chance. I can see I'm going to have to come back when I have much more time - it has so much to contribute. I have posted two queries to the bulletin board today, and look forward to some feedback. Thanks again Mike for such a well-presented site. I only wish I was a local and I could enrol in one of your courses!

Brought up in Tudwal street, Off Speke Road. Remember there being an Irwins grocers at the corner of Church Road and Speke road, later became Tesco.Next was a Blue union office, then the liverpool saving bank.then there was an entrance to a scrap yard,followed by a small shed like building which was a tea type cafe used primarily by the tram and bus drivers and conductors who used Garston as a terminus. The entrance to the scrap yard was closed up by building a small newspaper kiosk, this was about 1956-57

Curiosity about the origin of my middle name found your website. I have not had time to explore the site but hopefully it will shed some light on my english ancestry. My grandfather;s middle name was also Royden and I have been told it is a family name that goes back to an English shipbuilder. If you should happen to read this and have any info that might help me that you wish to share I would be most appreciative.

Regarding your rather idiotic comment (in the piece about Hitler in Liverpool) about a 'local writer' putting a 'fake' photo on his website - anyone with common sense knows that the writer isn't saying "this is an actual archive photo" - we all know that's it's a: RECONSTRUCTION. I think the Radio 4 programme was utter boring an inaccurate nonsense, and would rather read Ms Hitler's account because, she was there.

Mr King is entitled to his views, but despite his insulting approach he has missed the point. He presumes that an uncaptioned "RECONSTRUCTION" is obvious to everyone (the world wide web remember), and that the only evidence Hitler was in Liverpool is contained in Bridget Hitlers memoir - discredited almost universally by academic historians, including Professor Sir Ian Kershaw, the highly respected Hitler biographer. Mmm...Ronnie King_lfc of Woolton the Pete Price fan, who believes Bridget because 'she was there' or the Prof?...tricky... I hear Liverpool FC fans describe their version of the Derby match 'because they were there'. Cant say Ive ever agreed. And I was there too. Love, Lee Carsley

Enjoyed using the archives and record office and found Liverpudlians to be both friendly and helpful. I have posted a message on the Bulletin Board and hope to get some replies. Regards, Bairbre.

I've been an Evertonian since I was 4 along time ago. Keep up the good work. Gay

Mike, I am a direct descendent of John Tarbox, born Ippolits, Herts. ~1612, arrived Salem MA in 1637 with Elisabeth Tarbox and her husband Robert Burrell. I have begun some research that leads me to believe that Joh was the grandson of Sir Edward Tarbock and Dorothy Cotton (dau. of Sir George Cotton). Working with David Thaler we have connected Sir Edward to Henry de Tarbock 1333-1375 who married Isabel de Capenhurst. We also found Henry de Tarbock who married Elena de Turtam in 1284. They are obviously no

Just to say that my mother' family lived in Halebank in Blackburn Ave; just across from the Clap Gate. My Grandfather, Alexander Davies was awarded money for saving a women from the Ditton Rail disaster. I have been trying to pinpoint relations from the 1881 1891 census, but Halebank seems to be none existant as far as the census websites go.Any useful information? Anyway, a trip down memory lane! thank you.

In Norris Green now there are alot of problems with todays youth they need to treat our area and our city with a little bit of respect! I would appriciate it if you could forward me some additional information about Norris Green I would be very interested to see what you have go

The view is of The roundhouse or Lock Up. also the Everton Toffee shop. etc. I believe it was a wedding present to my grandparents in 1883. They gave it to my parents John Henry Jenkins and Sarah Ledsham 1920. I was given it in 1954. I always loved local history and always wished I could see more of that area. Of course as I grew up I did see pictures of Everton village etc. when cows were in the village.etc. I have never had

I was born in Garston in 1950 and moved to Melbourne Aus in 1956. I have not been back but I still remember the area I lived in. My father worked on the wharfs and now and then brought home bananas, so as you can see we lived near the docks.Apparently most of the houses have been pulled down, but my brother tells me that two remain as hertiage. One is my old home. Thanks for the site I will visit this more often.

Interesting to read about dungeon & the history of that area down by the river. We spent countless days running around oggy shore, wondering about the pyramids & a few other things. As a kid though i couldn't possibly imagine that there would be any prior history to a place which had always seemed barren for as long as i can remember. So thanks for sharing a bit of history with me, next time i go home i'll propably pay the shore a visit .

It's amazing what pops us on a search engine when you type in "Barry Horne-Everton" You probably won't remember my name "Sir" as you didn't actually teach me, but I’m sure you'd recognise my face as you taught a few of my friends, Nigel Agnew to name one! I too sit in the Top Balcony, may see you next season, Just thought I’d leave a message "Up the Blues" Andy

I read your article on my family ancestral home. I found it very interesting. I have spent several years researching the Ireland name and have traced my family ties back to Halewood. It is a shame that Hale the Hutt no longer exist. It seems that something could have been done to save it. Paticia Ireland.

I found this great site quite by accident from a BBC History link. As I am researching the temperance movement in Liverpool 1830 to 1900, I hope to make some contacts, and fill in lots of missing aspects of this subject. Mike - did you have any older relatives (Father/Uncle perhaps), who served in the Liverpool Police Force during the 60s and 70s, I knew an Eric Royden who retired as a Police Superintendent and thought you may be related. Best wishes to you, and all who visit this site.

I think he is Joachim A.A.

Loved the articles and especially the family pages. Love the view from the bedroom. The helicopter actually checks the pylons and cables for damage. This is done quite regularly and is amazing to watch the helicopter go up and down the length of cable at such a low height and so close.The pergola in the garden is fab. Love the way the fence panel gets lowered. Keep up the good work. You've gained yet another fan!

My Grandfather, HENRY GIBBS,about 12 years of age, a BHC, left Liverpool for Canada to become a farm boy in July 1908 aboard the SS Tunisian. He was placed in Ontario Canada [ Perth & Oxford County ]. He had been in the West Ham Union School in London ??? from 1901 - 1908. He remembers having a brother. I would like to find his family. Any help would be appreciated. Barbara at barbjoe@execulink.com

Have you any idea where it might be - thankyou for sharing your photographs and info. I will visit your site again and spread the word to friends.

Addendum: My prior post was cut off.

Galway Workhouse. Can you give me any leads on finding out about him or more about workhouses as they pertained to Ireland? His surname was Keogh. It would have been in the 1840s-1870s time period.

Haven't been able to find them earlier although Irish Forde became Ford and married British George. I am particularly interested in the Board of Guardians and how they pertained to the workhouses in Ireland. I am specifically hoping to obtain information for a fellow researcher who lives in Liverpool on her ancestor who wa

Some very interesting reading. My grandmothers maiden name was Ireland and our family has always been led to believe that in the past we owned a farm in Halewood called Irelands Farm. I have never really looked into it before but have been having fun on the internet and searched for the farm. Would you happen to know if a family history of the Irelands has been complied? Any further information? Many thanks Tom Brophy
