Dear All,

Sorry for the delay in responding to your posts but I have finally admitted defeat! - I just cannot find when William Russell Whitehair left for the USA on the Ships' Lists. Admittedly I don't know where he departed from, but I have gone through every departure that I can find, to as many destinations that I can find, to no avail.

Neither can I find any application for a passport, although not all years of application are available......but I will persevere!!!

Regards
Sue

I found William Whitehair recorded in 1876 New York City passenger lists (1820-1957) on Findmypast over the weekend and a record in the same year for Illinois Northern District Naturalisations (1820-1957).I also found an entry for a newspaper to suggest that he was part of a committee to have a memorial of some kind raised for Roger O'Connor. As his first wife ( mother of Amanda) was Irish i thought that this might be of interest.
