« on: Sunday 31 January 10 16:54 GMT (UK) »
Hi, can anyone do me a passenger list look up for a Sarah Priestley. I beleive she emigrated to Boston in around 1882-1884, her name was Sarah Priestley.

Can you give us an approximate age please. If she was a child what were her parents called?

Where was she born etc.

Did she at one time live in or have relations in Bolton, Lancs? Was she entering or leaving the UK?

She would have been about 22/24 when she left the country. Her parents were William & Eliza. Not sure whether she had any relatives in Bolton but she was leaving the country.

Nothing is springing up immediately. The best I can do is:

10 April 1882; Ship: Germanic; to New York.
Miss Priestley, 24, female, Lady.

3 June 1884; Ship: Bothnia; to New York
There is a Sarah Priestley, 22, spinster, English, but she is travelling with a Leah Priestley 49, and a child, John Priestley.
