Hi I have researched John mulligan for many years he changed his name birthdate ect, we couldn't find him until my husband did his dna, this has lead us to john mulligan, we knew him as Sydney jno milligan
we had stories but we didn't hold much hope,, but recent news cuttings have given us a lot to take in,, he was born 1879 Widnes, he married his first wife Eliza Carter 1903, he gave his father as George mulligan his first lie, he left his wife when he was a clerk for the Avonmouth sailors and firemen Union he embezzled them stole £10,, he was arrested 1913 in Birmingham l have news cuttings,, somewhere along his trail he joined the Manchester in a news cutting he was named as Sgt major John mulligan he was billeted in a house with the yarnold family he then elpoed with the daughter they went to live in Birkenhead in 1916 he had a son Martin, in another news cutting he was being searched for by the military police found this record dated 1917 he was at the same address his son was born so we no it's him,, he gave his occ as a ships greaser he went under the name of Sydney jno milligan,, he didn't marry until 1927 he gave, a false father's name again,, we know where he remained in birkengead he died 1947 ,, the stories we were told have all come true,, but how he became a Sgt major is, a mystery,,
