    Notes:

    Robert Henry Horn / Robert Mackney
    This has long been a puzzle.

    I was contact some years ago by Lesley McNair who believed that her ancestor, Robert Mackney, was the same person as the Robert Mackney in my tree.

    Over the years it became apparent that they werent the same person, but that there was a connection somewhere along the way.

    In February 2021 Lesley contacted me and said that she was convinced that her Robert Mackney was in fact Robert Henry Horn, whose mother had been Elizabeth McNair, the aunt of my Robert Mackney.

    This put a different light on things.

    Lesley couldnt find Robert Henry Horn after his parents died, and equally she couldnt find Robert Mackney before Robert Horns parents died.

    Everything seemed to fit, but proving it was a different matter.

    Eventually I managed to find a Liverpool Workhouse record that made the link.
    Robert was listed as both Robert Henry Horn, and Mackney, and gave his wife as Mary Alice Mackney. The problem was solved.
