NOTE

Emmigrated to Brasil. About 1868/69 they returned to England and settled between Liverpool and Widnes SW Lancashire. Lewis died age 27.

" I have proof that John Harper son of William and Phillippa Harper born 1837 married Anna Maria Bennetts in 1860. They went to Brazil where they had 6 children, the first two dying as infants. Their son William John born 1865 in Morro Velho was my ggrandfather. I will send further details if you wish. Chris Harper now agrees with this info. The Armstrong/Kemp tree has now been updated to include this." In photo 2 he is walking in Southport (north of Liverpool on the west coast of Lancashire) with his granddaughter Jessie.
