Liverpool, SS Majestic, White Star Line 1890

My greatgrandfather Patrick Matthews, his second wife Mary Ann (Smith) together with their daughter Rose sailed on the maiden voyage of the Majestic to New York in April 1890. Patrick was from Cootehill, CountyCavan, Ireland. In 2005 I found his descendants living in Florida. My husband and I flew to America for a holiday and met our new cousins.

My time in Liverpool

My memory of Liverpool was living in number 12 Kensington Rd near the corner of Hall Lane where the post office was.
