Hi,
My grandfather Arthur Lyons was born April 1906 in Liverpool. His Parents John and Sarah are on 1911 census living in Liverpool. Sarah's maiden name is Cassallan from his birth certificate ? Unable to find details of marriage but know it was around 1895, not sure where they were married. Anyone any help ??? Many Thanks

Robert Molloy 1891.
Is Anne Caslin the same person as Annie Casten on the 1901 posted by Dea?
Both names close (with accents) to Cassallan?

Theres 6 years difference in the age of Anne Caslin and Annie Casten but I should think its the same person as Robert is dwn as 1841 on that census and 1837 on another. Don't forget they did'nt really celebrate birthdays like we do today all those years ago.
