Hi Lind, went went to Garston C E in the 1950s ,and their was a Marilyn Molyneux in my class. The family lived in Seddon road Garston,they may have been been living in the Dingle at one time, as one of Marilyns friends was called Norma Cambell and she was from the Dingle, Beresford Road I think.
Hope this is of some help to you.
Hi Jimmy. Thank you very much for replying. All leads are so helpful. The family may well have moved and now I've something else to work on. Thanks again.
Lind
Message deleted as I've found the family. Thanks to everyone for looking.
Many thanks to everyone who has looked at my message. Despite a lot of searching, I'm sadly nowhere nearer finding the family I'd love to meet. I'm wondering with the passing years if the information I've been given isn't 100%accurate. But it seems definite that the family lived in Wellington Road. If anyone has family members who lived in Wellington Road or Greave Street in the 1940/1950s, or went to school or worked with them, I'd love to hear from you. I didn't realise they'd be so many Molyneux families in Liverpool! But one of these families has to have a connection.
Thanks again to everyone who has taken the time to look. It is very much appreciated. Lind.

Hello Linda, I have a freind called Molyneux who lives in Kirkby (just outside Liverpool) I have no idea about his family but will ask him and get back to you. By the way there is also a pub in Kirky called The Molyneux dont know if that has any signifisence but just thought I would mention it.

I will try to get a message to her.
All the best

Hello Mike and Chris. Thank you for your messages and your offers to make enquiries. It's kind of you to take the time to try and help. As the brothers and sisters would be in their 80s/90s now, I could well be looking for their children. Thanks again. Best wishes, Lind.
Have just found this thread !....we sold a house to a John Molyneux in 1970 he was moving from just across the Park (Dingle Park) in the street that ran next to the Turner Home (I cant remember the name, but if I hear the name I would know it). John was in his 20,s married but I cant remember any children !.The house he bought from my family was 119 Rosslyn Street, Aigburth. Hope this is of some use to you.
And don't forget young Max Molyneux from this very forum.
Hi Sqiggs ,
Small world ,
The John Molyneux you mention is married to Lynn , they are friends of mine ,
I started helping Linda out with the Molyneux search , but my dad became very ill & has since passed away ( last week )
We have almost ruled out "John's " dad being the Molyneux in question his family worked on the Mersey Tunnel ( tarmac)
but any info is appreciated .

Sorry to hear about your dad gorgeous, my deepest sympathies are with you.
Mine too. Sorry to hear your sad news. :hug:
So sorry to hear your sad news Karen. Our thoughts are with you.:PDT_Aliboronz_11:
Thank you so much
A month tomorrow & his death hasn't really hit me yet , i've had so much to do
all the sorting out has kept me pre occupied , but i will miss him more than anyone will ever know .
John & Lynn are such a lovely couple i only wish that he was the Molyneux connected to Linda's family , as he'd welcome her with open arms .
Going through my dads things i've found some interesting items ,
do any of you know of an " Ashley " family lived in Myrtle gardens ?
I'll add a seperate post so as not to take over this one .
luv to you all
Karen xx
Hello Karen, Squiggs and Ged. Many apologies for not replying to your posts. I haven't been on the site for a while. But I'm back again now.
Karen, I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. When we last made contact you were caring for him while he was so poorly. My thoughts are with you.
You were going through such a difficult time, yet you were still willing to help others. I'm sending you a huge hug.
Hi Squiggs and Ged. Thanks for your messages. I was full of hope when Karen contacted John for me. Sadly, he wasn't part of my long lost family. But for a short while I was full of hope and so excited. But this Molyneux family has to be somewhere in the Liverpool area. I can't believe just how many Molyneux families there are!
Thanks to everyone for leaving messages. Especially Karen, who has gone out of her way to help as much as she can.
Lind
I've just read through the thread, because I know a Molyneux family - John and Lynn - who are a lovely couple. I work with Lynn. What a shame they're not part of the family you're looking for.
I wouldn't be able to trace my family roots anyway on my dads side. My dad claimed Normandy roots once but i think he's BS'ing because he read of vikings there and because the odd one on my dads side are tall and built big. :PDT10Quote:

I don't think my dads side would know of any of my roots anyway. My mums name was Dugan or however it's spelt so maybe i have Irish too but she was brought up in a home so i know none of her side.
Maybe i should marry a Japanese woman one day like Lennon(except there alot hotter than Yoko usually) and have some kids with Liverpool and Japanese roots.:PDT_Aliboronz_24::PDT10 They'd probably call Liverpool "Riverpoo" though since they have problems pronouncing the L's though.:PDT10
Oh yeah, despite there being many Molyneux's in Liverpool, i encounter alot of people who can't pronounce Molyneux right. They say it like "Molyno", "Molynaux" or Molynuex".
Whereas Moulinex make things simple - and that includes the price. :)
Max you should look into your roots mate, you are of noble name and could be of noble birth mate
forgot to mention, I knew a bird called ]Molly
Hello MaxQuote:

I've always pronounced it as Molin-you.Quote:

Hiya...my MIL was a Molyneux...she was born in Garston in 1927..but her father and his family were from Woolton...the Molyneux family were in Speke Hall in the 1750`s so they have been in South Liverpool a long time...for the record, the man who is the overseer for all the funerals done by Porters Funeral Parlour in Park Road ,Toxteth (still the Dingle to me) is Mr Molyneux...I wont post his name up....but if you ring Porters you can speak to him...he is actually a cousin of my MIL...if you would like his chritian name PM me....good luck...allan
Don't know if this will help,my mother's maiden was Molyneux,my Grandmother married Robert Molyneux,both from DINGLE(1910?) was killed in the first world war.
