The Danhers
Our descendants originated from Limerick City County Limerick Ireland, post famine they ended up in Middlesbrough, through N.I. and Scotland, but there they met my great great grandparents John and Jane Danher, pictured in the family photo , then they married in Stockton and started having kids in Middlesbrough, where John was a miner/blacksmith and Jane a baptist minister's daughter and Tailor's daughter. They would both have 16 kids, most of the rest born in Liverpool, when the family moved there shortly after the birth of their 3rd son Thomas. In Liverpool the family prospered with Chandler shops, all over the city, the main one on 98 Aigburth road, but once John and Jane ready to retire , they moved away, across the Mersey to village of Wallasey, where John and sons became builders and they actually lived and retired in a bank of townhomes they built at number 58 Leasowe Road, in the Wallasey. Here some photos and pictures of the town, over time , home of the Cheshire Cheese.
These are the houses that John Danher built on Leasowe Road.
you see the railway bridge in distance, number 58 Leasowe road would be halfway down this road on the right side, halfway to the rail station Wallasey Village.
