Lizbro Report 3 Jan 2017 20:57

I am looking for any descendants . James was the eldest child of Ellen Walsh 1871 - 1944 and Richard Hesketh c1868 - 1918. 8 more children followed - Ellen, Thomas, Mary, Margaret, Richard, Rose, Joseph and Elizabeth. James is listed on 1911 census as a dock labourer living at 8 Clegg Street, Liverpool. He is the only one of these 9 siblings that I have no information on. Can anyone help please?

Thanks Liz

Thanks everyone for all the information. The marriage may be his, I'll keep searching. I have that address from 1939 register, so looks like that death is correct.
Happy New Year!! :-)

The Leach connection is that James's sister "Ellen" married Thomas Leach in 1909

She is with her parents on the 1911 census.......appears as Ellen Leach....married.

As James is the only one of the 9 siblings that you have no information on, you probably know that already.
