Find Living Relatives

Hello all.
My Great Grandfather Edward Largey was married to Agnes.They lived in the Toxeth Park area of Liverpool.Edward died in 1957 and Agnes a few years before.My Grandfather(from a previous marriage)was an only child and he is now deceased,so we don`t have a lot of information about Agnes and Edwards life :) We don`t have any pictures of either of them.I am just very curious and thought it would be nice to find out from someone who knew them.Edward was from Belfast originally and served with the Royal Navy for a time.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Clare.
Welcome to the boards.

Have you tried Search All Trees under the Search button above?

You can put the names of the family in and see if anyone else has them.

If you find a possible match you can contact the tree owner to see if you have a connection.

I would suggest that you delete the automatic message about looking at their tree. Most members will not open their trees to you until a connection has been established so just type your own message about who you think you may have in common.

Their marriage???

You say your Grandfather was from a previous marriage - whose previous marriage?

If it was Agnes then her maiden name might not be Abraham...?

One piece of data you weren't given with 1911 is that one child had died.............so no use trying to research William H

Your only hope is Stanley..............

I think this could well be Gerard's mother with her family

The brother Charles was probably her witness...........

Thank you all so much.You have filled in a lot of gaps.Edward was married to Ellen Liddy (gerards mother) and they were from Belfast.Ellen,Edward and Baby moved back home when Ellen became unwell.She sadly died when Gerard was only a few months old and he was raised by her sisters.Edward returned to Liverpool to work and married AgnesMy Grandfather still seen Edward but contact was limited.We don`t know a lot about him after this.The address where Agnes and Edward died was a Hospital in Rice Lane Liverpool.I am hoping to visit Ford Cemetary in the new year (I am from Belfast and still live here).Am wondering if there are any relatives of Agnes still living as it would be lovely to find out more.
This whole thing is very exciting and sad too.
Thank you all again for your help :-D :-D

To find any possible relatives use Search Trees as I suggested in my first post.

Good luck!

Try researching her brother.....as I advised earlier.

It's a million to one that anyone connected will see your thread...............so be pro-active.
