Liverpool

My mother grew up at Home Farm, next to Speke Hall.My grandad working for Willie Mac the farmer. There were 6 children and my 2 grand parents living in a 3 bedroom house, with only an outside toilet.
As children I would play around Speke Hall, the woods and farmland with my sisters and cousins. Lots of happy memories.

Liverpool now Southport

Born and bred in Liverpool until parents moved to Southport. I\'ve only recently discovered this piece of land and will be visiting it when the weather improves.

Grays Thurrock, Essex - then various parts of London - now Milton Keynes.

Lovely collection of photographs - sad to see the transformation from farms to town (just like Grays and Milton Keynes). Great photos of the prefabs - I lived in one where I grew up 1950-1965. I now have family around/in Liverpool - researching family history - researching takes you all over the place.

Hello - I am trying to track down the family grave of Isaac Birchall born 1809 in Speke. He lived most of his life in Oglet Lane and died in Liverpool 12 July 1893. Do you have a list of burials in Speke? Thanks
