Wow thanks Pete you are all such clever people. I haven't managed to get into local records yet. I did try but got lost!

Thanks Kriso I did see that entry for James Blackburn but can't find the wife.

Thanks, but it certainly doesn't look like Trattle
But that is around the right time, I think.

I'd say it was pretty certain to be Howson

There is a marriage in Liverpool for a George Strickland to an Alice Trattle September quarter 1854 (free BMD site).

Hi
Trying to find the maiden names of two of my ancestors and then move on to marriage details, so I ordered two birth certs. Trouble is, I can't find a suitable marriage on free BMD.
I have my gggrandfather George Strickland born abt 1824,wife Alice (looks like) Howson, but no marriage.
Also another gggrandfather James Blackburn born abt 1832, wife Ann(e) then it's difficult, possibly Rimington.
Both marriages would have been in Liverpool.
Where do I go from here please?
Thanks
Irene
