Tom & Elizabeth (Lizzie) Fazackerley
lived in Preston, Lancashire Co. (Lockstock Hall) and used to run a
confectionary business called "Zackies". |

Ernest John Fazakerley of Liverpool was
an actor and medicine man. He performed comedy on Broadway in New York and
he made and sold an elixir called "Azack Elixor"
in his traveling show. (b. 1870's or 1880's d. 1918). From Ernest John's
granddaughter. |

Even though to us the name is easy to pronounce,
it’s still a lot of letters to type, so when communicating with each
other, we tend to shorten the name to “Faz”. I use “Faz” for files,
etc. Others do this as well. BFH |
 | My grandmother, Louise Fazakerley, had her own nickname that came about
because people had such a hard time saying “Mrs. Fazakerly”. Someone
called her “Ms Zack” and the name stuck. She was known her entire
adult married life as “Zack”. Even her kids & grandkids called her
“Zack”. BFH |
 | Another Zack: "'Zack' is the name used by friends and
family. My father, who was an electrical contractor--Zack's Electric
Company--was known as Zack. I used Ed professionally (CPA), and my middle
name is Clifton, so I'll answer to almost any name. However, 'Zack' did not
carry over to my son, Brian Alexander. His friends created "Fiz."
Edward Fizackerly "Zack" resides in
Alabama and his father, Boyce Clifton Fizackerly, and grandfather, Bart
William Fisackerly, lived in Arkansas. |
 | I recently saw a communication by a young man by
the name of Rob Phizackerlea. His grandfather is from Barrow in Furness,
England. He signed his name "Phizzy".

Poem: by Charles
Causley "Colonel Fazackerley"; Puffin Book of Magic Verse (out of
print); www.poetrylibrary.org.uk/poetry/quote/txtreply.jsp?/quote_id=2209
Colonel Fazackerley Butterworth-Toast
Bought an old castle complete with a ghost
But someone or other forgot to declare
To Colonel Fazack that the spectre was there.
On the very first evening, while waiting to dine
The Colonel was taking a fine sherry wine
When the ghost, with a furious flash and a flare
Shot out of the chimney and shivered, "BEWARE!"
Colonel Fazackerley put down his glass
And said, "My dear fellow, that's really first class!
I just can't conceive how you do it at all
I imagine you're going to a Fancy Dress Ball?"
At this, the dread ghost gave a withering cry
Said the Colonel (his monocle firm in his eye)
"Now just how you do it I wish I could think
Do sit down and tell me, and please have a drink"
The ghost in his phosphorous cloak gave a roar
And floated about between ceiling and floor
He walked through a wall and returned through a pane
And backed up the chimney and came down again
Said the Colonel, "With laughter I'm feeling quite weak!"
(As trickles of merriment ran down his cheek)
"My house-warming party I hope you won't spurn
You must say you'll come and you'll give us a turn!"
At this, the poor spectre-quite out of his wits-
Proceeded to shake himself almost to bits
He rattled his chains and he clattered his bones
And he filled the whole castle with mumbles and moans
But Colonel Fazackerley, just as before,
Was simply delighted and called out, "Encore!"
At which the ghost vanished, his efforts in vain
And never was seen at the castle again
"Oh dear, what a pity!" said Colonel Fazack
"I don't know his name, so can't call him back"
And then with a smile that was hard to define
Colonel Fazackerley went in to dine
