Brilliant thanks Lynski : 1'll email the lovely lady at Wirral Archive office straight away.

edith hallis death b 1870 ancestry friend says death was apr 1906 aged 36 in Chester I wonder if she was still living at greenfield st with my nana aged 6 EDIT Edith's death record april1906 gives address as 10 stoke st)

Is this it???????

Deaths Mar 1923 (>99%)
HALLIS Samuel 83 Birkenhead 8a 569

His age matches the one in the 1911 census????

Why is it so hard to find death of Samuel Hallis ? I know he must have died 1911-1921 and he lived at 1 Greenfield st until his death ; His will would also be interesting if i had the refs to send off for it .
A GR member with a family connection told me his wife Mary's maiden name was Healey

My sister Brigid has put this adoptive family on her family tree but i'm keeping the birth parents on my tree .Hope to get some matches but it does look like most of the line ended childless .

i found a possible father for the workhouse boys
in 1851 census there is a William Holl b1806 who unfortunately is a pauper in Hindley Workhouse proffession (former labourer) .
in 1861 there is a William Holls aged 55 a widower and a labourer b.Lancs but I don't know how to check it is the same one .

I've just spent an hour in the library unable to find this Edward + his wife (lillian )Alice on 1901 /1911 census .

did find a possible marriage 8b146 for
Edward Hollis labourer who went to canada aged 26 on12th jan 1899

Thanks rootgatherer so that is the wrong Edward ;you've saved me the price of a wedding certificate .
the other one married a lilian alice hird (b1876) in 1897
In 1912 he left london age 40 to work as South African railway official is that a natural progression for a blacksmith ?
In 1936 aged 64 he comes to Greenfield street (where his sister martha h Evans still lives at no 3 with her daughter+ husband Lucy +Tom Cookson

seems unlikely that he had any children ....

I suppose if I get his death certificate that may say 1960 aged 84 died Birkenhead .

The Edward living in Samuel Street in 1911, I think is Edward Percy Hollis son of George and Mary Hollis. I don't think that his father's name is Samuel.

whichdocuments shall isend for ? nana maisie's brother Edward could be in everton in 1911 married to Ellen with daughter Ethel+ neice maizie E.
or could be unmarried childless Edward Hollis who went to south africa to workon railways (found by an Ancestry friend)on returning to GB in 1930's he lived in Greenfield St . is that too much of a coincidence ,nana got married in 1924 from no.3 .

a Mary Hollis was in the workhouse for girls in 1841 census She would be sister to John ,Robert + EDIT THE HOLLIS boys(not Samuel Hallis) . I know their father was William in prison in1841 , but I have to go back further as i have William's potential brother Edward but can't check without knowing their parents name .
It's an amazing co-incidence as a GR member said his Sam woodruff Hollis was actually adopted aged 11 by Edward Hollis who was 59 at the time .

poor little Maizie Elizabeth Hollis died aged 4 west derby

Have you seen this one????????

Births Mar 1909 (>99%)
Hollis Mazie Elizabeth W. Derby 8b 601

The district W. Derby is an alternative name for West Derby and it is in the county of Lancashire

I.ve looked on freebmd for Maisie Hollis b1909 but not found her

re wierd spelling of Lercy for Lucy Broadfield ,my mother remembers that robert broadfield was illiterate his wife taught him to read from the bible so a combination of his pronunciation and lack of knowledge could have led to that the Maisie/jessie spelling alternatives in 1911census but is more likely to be a mistranscription from handwriting to print .(thanks for spotting that Andy)

Ethel Dorothy Hollis born 19/4/1900 8b 450 died unmarried 18/4/1961 probate to Beatrice Ethel Crook and William George Hollis dock foreman £3451 4s 2d

baptised by Edward and Ellen Hollis in 1900 address 91 Abbott Street.

Anyone found the birth reg of Maisie their neice?

Maryb

On 1901 and 1911 census Samuel is clearly handwritten Hallis with an A
This is the spelling on my grandmothers school certificate +her marriage cert .
Also i have this spelling for Martha (Samuel's daughter)on a certificate from"girls friendly society 1885 which she pased on to Nana Maisie as a treasured item .
Why do his Son Edward + Wife Ellen, daughter Edith and their neice Maisie b.1909 all have the surname Hollis with O spelling ??

No relation. Just do lookups on the boards,

Andy
