Gerry was the Joe Kehoe that you mention from Platt Bridge and did he have a brother called John, a sister Jacqueline and i think 3 other sisters?

Hello Moz Joe Kehoe married again some years later and had the little shop next to the Squirrel on Ince Bar

Gerry and Josie, all it was, my wife to be was a Joe Kehoe's relation, his brother was John who's her Grandad. Now I am guessing this is Joe Kehoe from Higher Ince instead, and I am told he's an Engineer Street guy... Trust me am an Incer and Gerry knows who I am! :-)

I have to admit, I did a double take when I saw the name of the groom in this thread. But no, I am sure he was a fine Joe Kehoe, and is maybe/perhaps a relation... but that fine gent is not my Uncle Joe.

Dennis Please note the man in the Photo is Not Joe Kehoe it the brides brother John
