Edwin/Edward had the Left Luggage and the Richmond on Clarence Promenade he married Margaret Hardinge who grew up in Castlemona Avenue.She was one of eleven children one of which was called Brent -who went to live in the U.S. - I think her father was another Brent who was born around 1850 (in Ireland?) and worked on the trams (electric/horse?).Edwin/Edward and Margaret had amongst other children a son called George Herbert born in 1908.A possible relative (father?) of Edwin/Edward was a stonemason who worked on the Sefton, an IOM bank and some churches.

John Shimmin worked at Gellings Foundry (Victoria Street?) possibly a blacksmith.He married Emily Anne Goodwin - lived at Richmond Grove, I think she was from Cumbria. They had a daughter called Winifred born in 1909. Thankyou.
