Hi All,
Will someone look up for me Joseph Crawford b 1891 in Bootle, Liverpool.
On the 1901 census he was living with his parent, James and Margaret and sibs Robert, Margaret, mary and Edith address 49 Southey Street, Bootle.
He has always been refered to as 'the other brother'. So I thought it was about time he was brought to life!!.
Thank you,
Ann :-)

Hi,
Thats great, thankyou.
Is there anyway I could find out if he married without ordering quite a few marriage certs that appear on the records.

Joseph T Crawford Saunders Jul-Aug-Sep 1914 West Derby Lancashire

These are all the Joseph's that married after the 1911.

The Joseph T must be the one Prickly Holly put up with the birth but you have to remember that he may not have been married in Lancashire at all if his wife was from elsewhere. His mother was born in Wales and his father in Bootle Lancs.

Ancestry has his army records which show that he married Alice Maud Saunders on 3rd August 1914.

They had Dorothy Margaret on 10/5/15 and James Victor 17/4/17.

Thank You, I will ask more questions within the family.
Margaret Crawford I am pretty sure is dead, on the 1911 census it says that 1 child has died and Robert Mary and Edith are accounted for and the other brother who is Joseph.

He was also recorded as aged 25 years 3 months on 9th Dec. 1915 which means he was born around September 1890.
