Linda,

We did kinda move away from the original search question. I don't believe that he wrote much of anything about his parent. He did record his mother's death, but I believe that it was he who was literate and Elizabeth was not. She signed an "X" for the marriage certificate. I had always been told that he had a coal business, a drapery business and a meat business, but the last census I find with him in it says he was a "fish Hawker" and that leads me to believe that he had a cart. I was told that his business' were at 401 and 402 Warrington Rd. in Ince, and have tried hard to find a picture of that area before 1895. But have had no luck. William and Ann the sister, I have nothing on and there really isn't anything in my grandfather's remains that says anything about either of them.

I know that my grandfather, Ernest Lloyd was active in the CofE church. I have some certificates for him. There is one that wishes him well on his new adventure in the USA. Minnie's name I just found out is Mirium....and I know that she was a spinster all of her life and was living in London until her death. I believe she was a domestic for a wealthy family in London, but can't verify it. Sister Florence, married Albert Heaton, and she took care of her brothers and the children on 2 sisters, and she had one son, Wm. Heaton, who invented the EEG machine with a Dr. Ferranti(?) She then took care of Alberts parents, sisters and 1 brother until her death, which is another puzzle.... she took care of BIL Ernest Heaton until his death in 1961, she died the day after him, and they are buried together. So far, I haven't found a marriage for them but odd that she wasn't buried with her husband since there was a space there for her.
