Hi Malyon
we do think it's him but not 100% sure, and the age is wrong, as we found out on the census's from 1861 to 1911. only 2 of them fell into the 1855 birth range, but all the other info on them was his families, as i said in my original email it is a bit of a mystery,again many thanks, we will get there yet

Hi Chris Ho
the Marriage date for Joseph Ryan is correct on the original I sent as I have a copy of it , and he was a dock Labourer at that time, although on different census's he was listed at various jobs from Horse shoe Smith to Lab in a corn mill as was one of his sons JJ RYan my granddad. and that article on the 2 men drowning age 20 my cousin found that and thought that it might be him and they had the wrong age in the papers. thanks for your input on this mystery

Hello Al.
The Cert .you received what exactly does it say on it...?
Unusual have an inquest without a body....although some circumstances eg Colliery Deaths where the bodies are entombed a death cert is issued.... it is also unusual for the Liverpool Echo not to have posted a notice.....
Will have look around for you

Hi. I and my cousin are trying to find the information on Joseph Ryan (b) 1855 in Liverpool (my G/Grandfather), he Married a Hannah Smith on 26 Dec 1877 at St,Augustine's RC church in Liverpool, they had 6 Children, whom my Grandfather (J.J.Ryan) was one, and my cousins grandmother (Ursula) was another, we have found him on census's from 1861 age 6 through to 1901 age listed as 43,but we are sure this age is not correct, should be 46, now he is not on the 1911 census and Hannah is listed as a widower and the census is signed by my granddad JJ Ryan, now this where it gets tricky, the family story as passed down through the family is that he fell of a gangway boarding a ship (he was a dock labourer) and never found? we found a death for a Joseph Ryan of Toxteth Park, Liverpool in the 4th qtr of 1906 and was wondering if that was him? my cousin sent for the death certificate, but it was only based on a coroner's inquest and gave no next of kin,so a brick wall again, can anyone help with this please, oh and one more thing we found strange, we could not find any reports of it in any Liverpool area Papers, but it was in a few others from around England very strange, all the stories where just basic and the same in each paper except for age variations?
thank you
