Hi Kathleen, my Grandfather was John Murphy born 1890. His fathers name was James. I presume my grandfather was born in Birkenhead as this is where he was married. I cannot find any trace of him though on 1901 census.I have found a John Murphy on the 1891 census,but turned out it wasn't him as his fathers name is also shown as John. I wondered if perhaps my Grandfather is the John you are looking for.
