Notes for WILLIAM HASPEY:
Born in Runcorn 1821
Married 1842 at St. John the Baptist Church, Waltham on the Hill, Toxteth Park, Liverpool Lancashire
It is evident that William could write his name because on his marriage certificate he signed as William Haspey. His wife Ann, could not write her name, and therefore on the birth certificate of William's son Charles, the surname was spelt "Haspy" and on the birth certificate of William's daughter, the surname was spelt "Hasbey". The spelling of the surname on the registration documents initiated by Ann, his wife, therefore left the spelling of the surname to the Registrar.
Address in 1854 (8th Jan) given as 32 Court Mann Street.
Listed in the 1881 Census taken in Urban District of Runcorn as William Haspey, aged 61, a "Jiggerman" born in Runcorn. (Ref. RG11, Piece 3516, Folio 24, Page 43, Film # 1341842
"Jiggerman" is not listed as an occupation in the Dictionary of Old Trades & Occupations (Twining), but in the Collins English Dictionary the following was data was extracted as a guide to readers.

Notes for MARY ELIZABETH HASPY:
A thorough search of the Birth Indexes for the whole of England & Wales shows only a single registration in the name of Mary Elizabeth Hasbey for the 2 January 1858. The actual entry of birth completed on the 11 February 1858, gives the name of the father as William, a seaman in the merchant service, and the mother as Hannah (MS Davies). The birth was registered in the District of West Derby & Toxteth Park, within the sub-district of Everton.
The birth registration for Mary is interesting because the Surname is given as Hasbey. Mary's mother who could neither read nor write registered the birth. It is suggested that this explains two apparent discrepancies on the registration.
1 - The Registrar mistook the pronunciation of the name Haspey/Haspy for Hasbey or the poorly formed letter "p" was mistaken for a "b" when the index was compiled. An examination under microscope of the actual entry of birth does show a difference between the forming of the "b" in Hasbey and the "b" in February.
2 - The Registrar mistook the pronunciation of Ann for Hannah (or subsequently Hannah was shortened to Ann)
The address on the certificate of birth is also different from the address at the time of christening. The address for birth is given as No. 1. Boundary Street, Kirkdale
Mary Elizabeth Haspy was christened in the Cathedral Church of St Peter in Liverpool on 8 February 1858, and the record of that entry is in the Parish Register for 1858, entry number 1286. The register is also annotated that Mary was born on 2 January 1858, and gave the address as Knight Street.
It is reasonable to believe, (given the educational ability of Mary's mother), to understand the significance of the address accuracy requirement. The fact that the birth may have taken place at a different address than the subsequent christening, that both addresses may be correct, and that the registration for Mary Elizabeth Hasbey was in fact the registration of Mary Elizabeth Haspy.

The Demographics
St. Peter's Church, located about half way along Church Street, was about half a mile north-west from Knight Street. St. Peters, was destined to be replaced as the Cathedral in the 20th century, when the foundation stone for the new Anglican Cathedral was laid in July 1904. Church Street was part of the main shopping area of Liverpool, and along with Lord Street was described as being "one of the most fashionable streets in the city". Unfortunately the south side of Lord Street, including Church Street was severely damaged by bombing during the Second World War. St Peter's Church was extensively damaged, and subsequently demolished. The site is now (1997) occupied by shops. The Parish Records for St. Peter's may be seen on microfilm at the Society of Genealogy in London, where it is possible to see a microfilmed copy of Mary's christening entry in the Parish Register.
Mary's parents William, who was a Mariner, and Ann, his wife, gave their abode as Knight Street, although no number is given. Located approximately half a mile from the river, in a 1906 O.S. Map of Central Liverpool, Knight Street is shown located at a junction with a major street, Berry Street. Berry Street ran due south from St Luke's Place, until it joined Duke Street. At either end of Berry Street were churches. At the north end was St. Luke's Church, and at the southern end was St. Mark's Church. Knight Street ran roughly West to East, with its west junction being with Berry Street, and it's east junction being with Rodney Street.
Knight Street was approximately 500 feet in length with the majority of the houses, thirteen from a total of seventeen, being on the north side. The south side of Knight Street had four houses built, with space for new dwellings. At the north corner of Knight Street and Berry Street was a Public House. From the 1906 map, the houses on Knight Street, whilst varying in size, appeared to be fairly large dwellings compared with other nearby (Roscoe Lane) dwellings.
St. Nicholas's Church
St Nicholas's Church, Central Liverpool, was situated on the corner of New Quay and Chapel Street, about as close as it was possible to get to the riverfront. It was in the heart of "dockland" facing George Pierhead.
In 1207, King John granted this area a Royal Charter, and Chapel Street was amongst the first streets to be built. St Nicholas's Church faced what was George's Dock, which was subsequently redeveloped in the early 20th century to become George's Pierhead, the location of the famous Royal Liver Building. The first floating pier stage was built in 1847, and by 1906 this has extended to be a mighty 2,487 feet long. Just to the south of George's Pier Head is Albert Dock, which was opened in 1846 by Prince Albert, some five years after the digging commenced. The "digging of Albert Dock" was quite an event as digging continued 24 hours a day for five years! Between the Church of St. Nicholas and Albert Dock, the area is composed of warehouses. Each warehouse was some five stories high, constructed from iron and brick to make them as fire proof as possible. Some of the earlier warehouses where built in the 1780's indicating that the area had been used for this type of business for many years.
With the docks having closed in 1972, the whole area has been redeveloped, although some attempt has been made to retain some of the "original atmosphere" that can be sampled in the Maritime Museum.
It was in St Nicholas's Church that Thomas Holding married Mary Elizabeth Haspy on the 2 February 1874. Two interesting items were associated with this wedding. Mary Elizabeth was just sixteen years and 1 month in age, and it is at this point that we note the inclusion of the variation in spelling of the surname from Haspy to Haspey. Mary was not averse to the odd change in spelling, as an examination of the original marriage certificate (by microfilm) revealed that Mary also changed the spelling of her second name Elizabeth to Elyzabeth.

Marriage Notes for MARY HASPY and THOMAS HOLDING:
The certified copy of the marriage certificate identifies the following additional information
Witnesses to marriage were Charles Haspey and Elizabeth Haspey
Charles was the elder brother of Mary by some 4 years. Elizabeth Haspey was his wife, who he married in the same church one year earlier.
Officiating priest was R.L. Fairclough MA Curate
Age of both groom and bride is shown as "Minor", indicating that both were less than 21 years.
Present at the marriage between Thomas and Mary were her father William Haspey who was a Waterman by profession, and two witnesses, Charles and Elizabeth Haspey. Again, noteworthy is that the witness Elizabeth signed her name Elyzabeth. Charles, being unable to write, gave his mark. It is not possible to tell if Mary's mother Ann was present at the wedding. From other research associated with Sociology within the 19th century, there is some evidence that it was a common practice in Lancashire in the period around 1862 to substitute a "y" for an "i" in many words, with "y" commonly appearing in the word "fynd" (find).
Mary gave her address as Edmund Street, indicating that the family had moved from Upper Mann Street. Thomas gave his as Brook Street. Edmund Street in 1906 was immediately behind Tithebarn Street Railway Station, opened in 1850, and rebuilt as Liverpool Exchange Station in 1888. Edmund Street provided the northern boundary for Liverpool Cotton Exchange, and was a small street leading off Old Hall Street. Under a 1000 ft. from the riverfront, Edmund Street was at the southern end of an area known as Vauxhall Ward. An area dominated by overcrowded streets, an atmosphere polluted by thick smoke and smells from the surrounding industrial premises, such as the tall Vauxhall Chimney, on Vauxhall Road, built in 1842, towering 312 feet, and pumping out sulphur fumes from the Thompson & Hill's chemical works.
In a book written by John Jackson in 1963, descriptions are collected from various sources to describe, amongst other things, social life in Victorian England. The following is a description of the area surrounding Vauxhall Road in the mid 19th century, taken from a Commissioners Report of the time "An Investigation into the State of Large Towns", published in the Journal of the Statistical Society in 1848.
"Liverpool contains a multitude of inhabited cellars, close and damp, with no drain nor any convenience, and the pest houses are constantly filled with fever. Some time ago I visited a poor woman in distress, the wife of a labouring man, she had been confined only a few days, and herself and infant were lying on straw in a vault, through the outer cellar, with a clay floor impervious to water. There was neither light nor ventilation in it, and the air was dreadful. I had to walk on bricks across the floor to reach her bedside, the floor itself being flooded with stagnant water. This is by no means an extraordinary case; for I have witnessed scenes equally as wretched, and it is only necessary to go into Crosby Street, Freemason's Row, and many cross streets out of Vauxhall Road, to find hordes of poor creatures living in cellars, which are almost as bad and offensive as charnel houses. In Freemason's Row, I found, about two years ago, a court of houses, the floors of which were below the public street, and the area of the whole court was a floating mass of putrefied animal and vegetable matter, so dreadfully offensive, that I was obliged to make a precipitate retreat. Yet the whole of the houses were inhabited"
Edmund street itself contained few dwellings, but on the north side of the street, a small alleyway next to a Public House led to fifteen dwellings. The alleyway does not have a specific adopted name, and it may therefore be concluded that residents of these dwellings would be classed as Edmund Street, or perhaps Edmund Court. Brook Street faired little better, being situated approximately 500 feet north-west from Edmund Street, a small road leading King Edward Street and connecting with Old Hall Street. Brook Street was mainly warehouses, and squeezed between them two small alleyways leading to courts of dwellings. One court had nine dwellings, and the other eighteen.
The Vauxhall Ward, and its adjacent sister ward, Scotland Ward, would account for a floating population of single workers without permanent accommodation, whom would each night seek lodgings. By the end of the 19 Th. century the estimated size of t his floating population of labourers and dockers was some 14,000 persons. Quoting from the "Report on an Investigation into the State of Large Towns".
"Far worse conditions were of course found in the cellars that were used to provide nightly shelter. At night the floor of these cellars, often the bare earth, is covered with straw, and there are lodgers, all who can afford to pay a penny for the accommodation, arrange themselves as best they may until scarcely a single available inch of space is left unoccupied; and this way as many as 30 human beings or more are sometimes packed together, each inhaling the poison which his neighbour generates and presenting in miniature a picture of the Black Hole of Calcutta.
In many areas there were no toilets at all and the filth was allowed to accumulate in front of the hoses in a ditch. In some areas, the air would be contaminated by the air that arose from one or two toilets shared by all the residents in a court."
The appalling conditions described by those 19th century contemporaries did not apply to just a few isolated districts, or to the casual labouring population only. They formed the environment of the majority of the working classes of the town, including the highly skilled and independent craftsmen of the middle 19th century.
