Founder John Houlding received the below certificate from the Board of Trade on June 3, 1892 to formally bring the club into existence.
Houlding and his associates had started the process of creating a new club in March of that year when they split from Everton.
An acrimonious dispute with the Blues had left Anfield vacant with no team calling it home.
William E. Barclay is the man credited with coming up with the name Liverpool Football Club. He and Houlding agreed on a mission statement: "That the club be called Liverpool Football Club and shall play under the Rules of the Football Association."
Houlding was informed, on June 3, that Liverpool Football Club and Athletic Grounds Company Limited had been granted official recognition.
Liverpool FC was born and its illustrious history began from there.
