LOONEY, William c1867 Liverpool Lancashire

can locate in 1871, 1881, 1891 - wife dies in 1900 (fairly certain) children are staying as visitors in 1901 and have tried various sources to locate him in 1901 with no luck - have tried various variations of the name also. This is what I have, any assistance would be great. I will be leaving for work in about half hour or so but will check back this evening for any questions if they come in after that time.

Many thanks

Carol

Hiya

Augusta's death is correct

Starr1 - That is the correct marriage record.

Have that info - sorry should have put that in as well - just seeking 1901. Can't really source the right William in 1911 and need to top up credits to look a true records.

Hope that helps a bit

Carol,
Back to the drawing board :-))


Regards Vera

he was a baker - so could be easily misinterpreted

Right area I guess, but Looney to Larney? .. I'm just clutching straws here, thought maybe it was Larney using the accent??

Hi Vera

Just checked full bmd on The Gen and it is definately a Larney record not Looney - sorry.

Carol

wasn't my reply Carol.
Regards Vera

Carol,
Have been though all the Williams born 1867 Liverpool.....nothing that hits the eye...I wonder what name he is under....very frustrating,
Even checked immigration/emigration so far nothing.


Regards Vera

Sorry about that

Thanks for checking T - Middlesex

I was about to do another search looking on The Gen looking for all Williams listed as a baker with his y.o.b. again.

You are trying so hard - it is very much appreciated - at least it means I haven't missed the obvious.

Starting to get sites dropping out plus it is 11.00p.m. here so i might do this one last quick search and then check back in the morning.

Ta ever so

Carol
