Hughes / Fazakeley Family from Liverpool

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Haydn Report 27 Feb 2017 16:21

I'm looking for anyone related to the Hughes family who came from Liverpool. My Grandfather George T Hughes born 1920 had an older sister called Hilda born 1911 and a younger brother called Harold born 1925. Their parents were Francis E Hughes born 1890 and Ethel Fazakerley born 1893. Hilda's married surname was Myerscough.

I am looking for anyone who may be related to either Hilda, Harold or maybe even Francis or Ethel.

The son born 1945 is listed in the BT phone book, in Liverpool. There is only one Myerscough entry for that City.

As there are several Harold's born in the same area and within a year or two of each other, its rather difficult to decide if any marriages are applicable, If you were to purchase his DC, it should tell you if he was married, widowed or divorced, and give his widow's name. The informant might be a descendent.
