RB strangely if you Google Ann Davies / Leasowe it comes up with an entry which shows the grave stone and inscription but nothing else......
http://www.systemsworld.net/personal/famhist/necropolis/DAVIES.htm

Stranger and stranger.


To explain to others - we saw this gravestone today and thought the inscription was rather strange. It looks like we'll have to do some digging to see if we can find out anything.

Edward CUST became the new owner in 1826- 1878. ? Name change?
Its edward i think we need to learn about because the family forked out for the stone coz she, ann was his mrs.
Funny tho, edward was the son in law of the woman who has a memorial on breck rd- thread somewhere on here.
I got this from www.leasowecastle.com and as a nursury age level historian i'm too excited to read it proper! Lol

Well....me+ sue 'bailed out' of the bidston basement 'dig' ''coz we're girls and so we dont have to dig+ remove rubble''
- lol so maybe its 'payback'.
3 girlies- we picked up on the 'oddness' of the inscription. Female intuition?!?
Yer, like everything it may turn owt to be nowt but the fun is in the procesß of finding that out....
Ive never researched history before and i am aware that i would be quite capable of getting excited over nuffin so hope the clever wiki people look into it.
Im one step away from a person who would do somersaults over finding 'ann davis' on t'internet -on facebook?
And combust with excitement that theres 'ann davis' on bebo!! Lol.
Hasnt stopped me googling tho!
