Could someone kindly look for the following: Richard Alexander Sharpe (known as Alexander) and wife Margaret. They were married in Toxteth Park in 1895 so may have stayed in the area for quite some time. They were living in West Derby by 1917.....Thanks, Deb:)

Do you have any more details from a marriage certificate? We might have to track backwards in order to go forwards. Gwyn

I'm going off my grandmother's marriage cert. The marriage took place in Liverpool S 23/4/1938 between Ada Sharpe and Charles Hyland. Ada's father was Richard Alexander Sharpe, Engineer's Fitter's Labourer. I've found his marriage to Margaret McNerney in Toxteth Park in 1895 and from Ada's birth ref in West Derby in 1917, her mother's maiden name was McNerney. Deb:)
