Bethan,
I can't take the credit for teh two possibilites mentioned previously - they were sent to you by someone else. But, as I have searched ships passenger lists, I found something to share with you. Not a George Davies, but some members of a Davies family who emigrated in 1887 from Wales - so perhaps there is some connection. This is what I found:
**********************************************
Steamship Lord Clive
Passenger List of Steamship Lord Clive from Liverpool Arrived July 5th 1887 in the Port of Philadelphia
Transcriber's Family passengers #93-101 Davies
This manifest was generously donated by Nancy Watson. Her great grandmother on the list is Jeanette Davies age 11 years, although Nancy knows she was 13 years old at the time she came to this country.
While the manifest indicates that her Davies ancestors were from
England, they were really from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. If you have a connection to this family, please contact Nancy. (
