Hi All
Can some kind person add to this search with details of the family below thanks
My Husbands connection to John Alexander is as follows James 1849 is the brother of JA
He went to America Don't know why? He did marry and had 4 children. I dont know who he married? These are the children, James Lily Emmeline and William John. Family history goes that James the father died. The children were farmed out to other family members. I think James was in Texas Lily Missouri Emmeline on my bits of family papers it looks like Belfast New Jersey? William John was sent to Liverpool. John Alexander looked out for him, but I dont know if he lived with JA, or who he lived with as a matter of fact.
William John is my husbands Grandfather and the father of George James Brodie. Could some kind person check why they went to USA, and indeed who did James marry, When did James die and what was the cause. Who did William John Live with when he came to UK.
I would be most grateful for any help that the experts can offer thanks Eileen

If you can find a newspaper obituary from the time of his death it may tell you where he is buried.

According to a page on Google - he is buried in the Anfield Cemetery, Liverpool.

I am sure this could be confirmed by contacting the Cemetary.

Not sure why you started another thread about this man Eileen.

It may be worth checking the pay to view site deceasedonline. They are adding to their burial and cremation records all the time.

I added again because I have been contacted from NZ by a family member who I didnt know. I have tried nudging the post upward in the past and didnt get a responce. I dont know what else to do to get it noticed!!!
I have sice found out that his ashes are scattered at Allerton. I am now looking for other descendants of this man.
If I have offended sorry!!!!!!!!!

Eileen, I realised that you didn't intend to offend. Sometimes when another thread is started helpers who haven't seen the first thread look for what has already been "found". There was no need for an apology but it is accepted.

Glad you found his burial place anyway.
