Lokking for information on the siblings of Charlotte Ann and James Pearson Liverpool

Question

Hi, My deceased father Alan Pearson was descended from Charlotte Ann Pearson and James Pearson Liverpool . Charlotte died in 1919 her father was George Stredwick Weech who I believe was born in the Bahamas. I know Charlotte was born 1934 died 1919 and James Pearson 1835 - 1904.  I know Charlotte had 5 sons Thomas Stredwick Pearson the others being James, Robert,Joseph and Henry.  Unfortunately my Dad Alan Pearson born 12.08.1932 lost contact with his father Harold Pearson from the above line and I would be grateful for any information.  

Thank You

Would you have any time frame information for Harold Pearson, birth year, or marriage year, name of spouse? Did he always live in Liverpool? If not where else?

Answer 2

George Weech and Phoebe had five children that I can find: George (1828), Elizabeth (1831), Charlotte (1834), Emma (1835) and William (1840). The first two in Liverpool, the latter two in Stepney, London, then William back in Liverpool. Normally I'm very suspicious of such movements and assume two different families have been conflated but here it might be correct. William does have a mother's maiden name of "Tyrer" on gro.gov.uk and this website claims his father George married Phoebe Tyre: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/192724154
