Hi, I am doing my family tree & have the following info about the Kevan line in Liverpool as follows;
My g grandmother was Mary Eliz Kevan born 1890,she was married to Henry Kilshaw. Her parents were Peter Kevan born 1852 & catherine ? then his parents were Peter Kevan born 1834 & Amelia Balmer.Lastly his parents were Nathan Kevan born 1787 married to Alice ? Nathan was a pawn broker. If you have any further information on ANYTHING no matter how small - i would love to hear from you!

Hi Miranda I have a copy of the marriage cert for Peter Kevan and Amelia Gilmore nee Balmer, peter gives his fathers name as James, and amelia's father was john Balmer. I also have the name balmer in my own family tree. John Balmer Maried Sarah Grace between 1920/ 30 this was my mothers sister and i am in touch with all my balmer cousins.

My Kevan's may not be yours but just in case.....
My great grandmother was EDITH KEVAN and she married WILLIAM EARLE CLARKE in Liverpool in 1905, they had 3 children THOMAS, EDITH and STANLEY.
EDITH was born in Liverpool in 1885 her father was PETER KEVAN I don't know his wifes name, she had a brother i know of also called PETER KEVAN. He married a woman called TERESA MURPHY i don't know when.
Hope this helps even if it crosses us off.
Good luck.

Hi , regarding your Edith Kevan, she was my mums aunt Edie and I can remember her very well, yes she is of same family of Kevans on here ( that is father Peter Kevan ) if you need any info please get back with what you already have. I am answering this but my dau is Miranda, who is on here.

That is fantastic news, was she your mums aunt on the kevan side or the clarke side? I can't believe it? what was she like? do you have any photo's of them at all?
I don't know a lot about them as i'm stil trying to find out about them, i've followed the clarke line and got as far as William Earles grandfather but i'd really like to find out about 'people' not just follow the line - if that makes sense!
gosh i can't wait to tell my dad, i guess we're related distantly, my grandfather would have been your mothers cousin (i think!)
look forward to hearing from you.

Hi , sorry dont know your name, but who is your dad ? I know aunt Edie ( who was my gt aunt ) had a daughter who lived not far from her cant this minute think of her name , but knew them as we all lived very close , so if you are a gt grandaughter and I take it your dad is aunt Edies son ? Could this be the son who went to Australia? I dont have any pics of aunt Edie but have a couple of her sisters Mary Elizabeth ( my grandmother ) & auntie Nelly (Ellen ) is your dads name Tommy ? I am Annies daughter. Ann.

I'm tommy's grandaughter, my dad is tony (anthony)tommy had a sister edie too and sje married a chap called tommy barrow. i met auntie edie in the 80's when my grandad came over to england for a holiday, we stayed with her for a couple of weeks as far as i know they are all from norris green.
my dad adn his brothers and sister are still in australia 3 in adelaide 1 melbourne.
i have edith and william earle's marriage cert, it has him as a labourer but i know he became a fireman later in life too.
it's lovely to FINALLY hear from someone who knows who i'm looking for, can you tell me what you know about them please.

just thinking, aunt edie who was my great aunt has a daughter hilda and i'm sure her son is john. hilda has a daughter elsa who's son is kevan, john has a daughter called laura, his son's name escapes me.
when i came up to see auntie edie they all lived pretty much around the corner.

Does anyone know if peter and catherine had a son called peter?
i have edith kevan's marriage certificate to william earle clarke and it's witnessed by peter kevan and a tresa (teresa) kevan. i know peter kevan married a teresa murphy in the early 1900's
could it be a cousin meybe if not a brother?
