My father's family, although now based in Liverpool and district were originally from the parish of Wrockwardine or Wrocherdine in Shropshire. My great-grandfather was Louis Eccleshall and his wife was Jemima. My grandfather, also called Louis, came to Liverpool at the end of the 19th century and married an Irish girl. They had eight children, six of whom remained in the Liverpool area, the remaining two moving to Birmingham.
