Annie We did something about that family in the first part I can remember the name Dwight.

Have we had this?

Dwight, George and Charles travelled to New York from Liverpool on the Germanic on 24 oct 1894. They were all listed as single; Dwight as an engineer, Charles as a plumber and George as a painter.

Obviously Dwight came back - where would we find out about the other 2?

I know, it was on page 1 of the first thread when I found the 1871 census with Islington mentioned - because of that I've always thought this Chalres has to be high on the list of suspects.

 According to this one Charles, Joan, Ellen and Sidney moved to Manchester leaving Emily behind in Somerset with other children possibly Winifred and Margaret

Is this Mary's original posting...  

I think it may be her brother Charles who posted that

i have had another thought re Emily ok what if she was previously married
we would need to look for a marriage for Emily .... to Mr Wheeler 1893-1904
although she lists her father as Edward Wheeler when she married Charles
so possibly we need to also look for a marriage for Emily Wheeler 1893-1904  
this is going on the basis she was born in 1873-1876

how many are there? are there too many to rule out ?

mayeb there is an Ellen and JOanna registerd in that surname ?

Hi Toni.  It does say on their marriage cert that Emily is a spinster and Charles a bachelor.  x x

Back to the Islington Youngs - one of the sisters was Margaret and we know that the brothers all went to USA at least for a while.

on 1911 there is a Margaret Young, widow, b Liverpool age 29 (so right age for this Margaret) lodging with a Makin family in Kirkdale, Liverpool. She has 2 young Youngs (ha!) with her - Margaret, age 5 and Mabel age 1, both "american residents".

relevant to this family?

Hi Shaun.  I don't know where they came from when they came to Salford, Lancs in the 1920s, only that Joanna, Sidney and Ellen came with Charles.  Where Emily was, or went, I have no idea.  It would seem to make more sense that they came to Salford from Liverpool as it is still in the north of England.  Whether Emily went South or not I don't know.  x x

We need someone with access to the 1900 USA census to see if any of them show up.

Hi Annie.  My father (Sidney) was the only boy of the family, so I'm not sure this applies chuck.  x x
