I'm trying to find information on my Great-grandfather, Albert Gibson, who lived in Rosalind Road Kirkdale Liverpool. His daughter, Elsie, was my father's mother. I have no details at all on Elsie's side of the family. Can anyone help, please?

Hi Lindy Lou

The only information I have is his name as listed on my Grandmother Elsie Gibson's wedding certificate to my Grandtather, William Davies in 1923.

What year was Elsie born? or how old did she say she was on the marriage cert in 1923?

I think your best bet is to look for Elsies birth cert 1st.

Many thanks, geraldine. My computer crashed! the marriage Sep 1894 sounds promising. I recall my dad mentioned his grandmother was Elizabeth.
Again, thankyou so much for your help
