Hi Alan,
While Historic Liverpool doesn’t cover Kirkby yet, there are a lot of good resources elsewhere on the web, such as a timeline, some reminisences on the Kirkby Times site and a fact file by the Arch group. If there are any more specific things you’d like to know, do say.

On and off I’ve been trying to put together all I can about my birth area ….. Brunswick Road in Liverpool 6 . Only recently have I come across an Ordnance Survey Map of 1848 showing huge , high-class dwellings on Brunswick Road and on Erskine Street . This isn’t the way I experienced my young life there . Would there be any images of that time … and any 1950s 1960s photos of Brunswick Road and most especially Kinder Street ?
I enjoy these maps !

Hi Terry,
I’ve passed along your query to the Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/historicliverpool) but I’ve also come across this one on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/30593522@N05/3507423017/ It’s Erskine Street in 1970, so may be a bit later than you were hoping for, but something that may be useful to you.

I’m tracing my family history and my father comes from Liverpool. My dad lived & grew up in Liverpool from 1931 to about 1948. Addresses I have for family there are Carnarvon street (kirkdale), Cockesill Street (off Walton Rd)…not sure if that is spelt correct…..and Carmel Street (Everton).
I believe a couple, if not all, of these roads were either destroyed in WW2 or have since been demolished.
Can anyone help? I believe I still have family living in Liverpool in the name of Richardson & Robinson & possibly Curran.
Any help is much appreciatted.
Hi Paul,
I’ve not been able to find the streets you mention, and you’re right, the areas they were in were heavily bombed in WWII or cleared by the wrecking ball in the decades following. Good luck with your family history.

Thank you for your reply which I’ve only just found today . I think this can’t possibly be the same Erskine Street —- but yours is the only answer that came . So many thanks .
I am trying to find Leslie street Liverpool as have some long lost family giving
18 Leslie street as an addresson a marraige cert can anyone help please
just saw your comment on leslie street,my dad lived there as a young boy,it was on the site of king gardens just off hyslop street.
Hi Peter,
I’ve not been able to find a great deal of information, except to say that Leslie Street was in Toxteth. It’s not listed on my 1890 map of Liverpool, so it might be south of Princes Park, which is off the bottom of the map.

I was wondering if anyone knows where the Royal Ordnance Factory was/is located. I understand it was in Fazakerley. Also, I was curious to know if any of the original buildings are still there. I was interested in visiting the site when in Liverpool again. I am in Canada. Thank you in advance.
Hi Barrington,
The ROF was one of the first industries to locate on the outskirts of Liverpool in what are now our industrial and commercial estates. The one at Fazakerley was located where Long Lane industrial estate is. On the map in the Fazakerley page on this site the ROF was around where the ‘F’ in Fazakerley is.
Regards,
Martin
Thank you very much for the information, Martin. I was hoping some of the original structure might still be there. Any idea where one might be able to see photographs of the original buildings? Is there an archive online perhaps?
You could try the English Heritage Archive (formerly the National Monuments Record). They’ve a few websites with records on, or you can email them to ask them to search. Having used (and been involved in the creation of) the websites, I’d suggest using the enquiries form on the main English Heritage website – it’s free to enquire!
Thanks again, Martin.
I am trying to find the name of thepub on the corner of Compton Street Everton. He run the pub some around 1912 and 1930 his name was John Albert Lymer. All that is writtenon the pub is Robinson’s Liverpool Mild and Burtons Bitter Ale. I beieve these brews were acquired by the Marston groupl. Is thereanywhere I could research this further.
Anyone looking for answers to this question can see my reply to Patricia’s comment on the Old Maps of Liverpool page.
