Sorry, Maybe I should have made it clearer that there were no births/batismal records on the Parish Records, but the marriage was there. So I don't think they could have been Catholic. Liz |

I thought that as well, Liz. If it was a 'mixed' faith marriage would they have married in Church but follow Catholic faith for the children? It's a strange one - if that's what happened, only guessing of course. Nowadays, people change religions. I know a bit about religion in 1600s but not 1800s. Probably more likely they didn't have the cash to record births, if so all my ancestors were in the same predicament - most are unrecorded. Now if only there had been a family Bible... |

Hi Keith, nice to have you back! Hope you find them. Off to have another look at my tree - Can't see the correct Woods, no pun intended. |

Re the earlier point made by Christine on the sugar related occupation, Greenock was a great sugar town, 12 sugar refineries at one point including Lyles (later Tate and). Lots of links with Liverpool too. Could add up. He might have been a labourer in one of these? Yes, great result for Hibs today. Denis. |

Mmm! So did Caley! Remember them! Not a glorious game but 3 points nonetheless! Guess i'm off the Christmas card list, Denis! But the serious business, of course Greenock/Tate & Lyle - I hadn't thought of that, he could well have worked there, and he is down as a Sugar Broker so could mean he bought and sold sugar. Keith, Sugar refineries in Liverpool? You any ideas? I'm not around tomorrow till late afternoon but will look to see if you come up with anything |

Greenock and Liverpool were two leading sugar centres. Apparently a there was such a thing as a 'sugar labourer' so perhaps that what he started out as and worked his way up. Greenock and Liverpool both drew much of their labour from Ireland. Interesting that at that time if you wanted to go from Glasgow to London you took a train to Greenock, boat to Liverpool then another train. Keith, all you might ever want to know about sugar in Greenock can be found at: http://home*clara*net/mawer/greenock*html Christine,I'll keep you on the Christmas card list - I'm a Caley Thistle season ticket holder!
