Can anyone do me a look up on a Passenger record for John Bowen Born 1839 Kidderminster England.
I am trying to find the whereabouts of my Great Grandfather between the years 1882 and 1900 and my grandmother said he went to USA with one of his daughters which i now know the daughter did go to USA with her husband and have found there passenger records His daughter Clara (Gale)came to the us in 1893 her husband Fred in 1892 and as my great grandfather John isn't on the 1891 census for england and i wondered if he came before these dates.Boston was always mentioned even though Clara and her husband settled in Illinois.
Clara and Fred travelled from Liverpool and Queenstown.
Any Help would be most grateful
Thanks

Hi Linda
Did find the following:
John BOWEN, age 50, labourer, b England, travelling and disembarking in New York on 3 March 1888, on the ship Republic.
Hope this is your John, as the lists don't give a lot of information. He was the only one I saw that came close.
Regards,
Valerie
