Title: Passenger list lookups - to the US (1871-1879) - from the US (1880-1891)
Post by: jenet4 on Tuesday 13 December 11 13:32 GMT (UK)

Hi,

I would be very grateful if someone could help with the following passenger list lookups.


1. Louisa Harriet Hanks (also known as Abbie)
   born Bristol about 1859
   travelled to the US between 1871 and 1879


2. Frederick Teare
   born Isle of Man about 1847
   again travelled to the US between 1871 and 1879


3. Louisa Harriet Teare (also known as Abbie)
   born Bristol 1859
   returned from the US between 1880 and 1891


Any help with the above would be very much appreciated. They are probably all to or from New York.

Many Thanks,
Jenet

Hi rosie17,

The 1880 census entry for Frederick and Abbie L Tearr I think is the couple I am looking for.

In 1871 Louisa Harriet Hanks (Abbie) is in the UK living in Bristol with her Aunt and Uncle. Also at the same address is her sister Frances Elizabeth Hanks who could have been known as Elizabeth. The 2 sisters are very close in age so the Elizabeth Hanks that you have found could have been Abbie’s sister.

What passenger list is Elizabeth on?

Thank you so much for your reply.

Hi Rosie, Yes, Thanks, I had found Abbie in the 1891 census. She eventually married John Powell. If the Elizabeth Hanks you have found is Abbie’s sister then perhaps she travelled to the US to be with her. Maybe we will never know. Thanks again. Jenet4
