Memories of Liverpool, the Ferry Boats
This is not a memory as such- but just information as to the source of my ancestors.
A ferry owner who ran the service from Stackhill to Newland was Ezra Mann, he was born in circa 1858 in Yorkshire and owned a large sized cog-boat which ferried passengers, pigs,hens and bicycles, plus children to Dax Grammer School.
Ezra lost an arm in an accident and for a while worked at McFies Treacle Works in Liverpool where it is believed he met and married Martha Pembleton-Wood
He married Martha Pemberton- Wood; the grandaughter of Sir Nicholas Fazackerly and daughter of Fazackerly's daughter and groomsman - Pembleton-Wood. They had 18 children, 12 survived - 7 sons and 4 daughters.
Ezra Mann was my great- grandfather. My mother was the daughter of Charles, Ezra's son.

Liverpool, St. Georges Hall c1881
Ref: 7813
I was brought up in no 3 Loudon Grove. However, on a recent visit I noticed that Nos 1, 3, 5, and 7 along with others have been demolished and only No 7 on that side of the road has been replaced with a new house. The location of 1, 3 and 5 is just grassed over. Does anybody know the reason for this?

Liverpool, Bold Street 1887
Ref: 20010
My first job after leaving Our Lady of Mount Carmel school was in the accounts office of the well known Blacklers Department Store. The office only was located in Bold Street during 1953. The office staff relocated to the main store during 1953/54. I worked with a friend called Margaret Langshaw. We both left to work at Littlewoods Pools in Edge Lane. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Margaret I would love to hear from them.

I have fond memories of living in Liverpool. I lived behind Hope Street and paced the pavement of Bold Street most days. This is a wonderful picture for me.

Liverpool, the 'Empress of England' leaving Liverpool c1958
Ref: L60034
Hi, I too emigrated to Canada but in about 1954 when I was nearly three. We had to come back the following year as my father was ill, and I think it must have been on the return journey that I remember the rocking horse too! Thanks for reminding me of this and of the portholes in the ship. Those two things stuck in my mind.
