Hi

Thanks for that. Does it state a year of immigration for Elizabeth Sutherland or is it just for the head in that census? I know it was about 1880 but it would be good to see what that census states for her year of immigration.

Sorry Ben, I was surprised that it did'nt give that information for Elizabeth. Widow. Had 11 children and 4 survive was the only other info.

Thanks anyway. The number of children she had and what survive tally with the 1900 census and I know she had a few children in England before she emigrated. It would be good to find out which daughter was married to Joseph Thomas.

I may have found her son Thomas Wilson's marriage to a Sarah Sutherland in 1897.

Thanks.

It all helps in the search for Thomas Musgrave's death and burial. And of his life when he first arrived in America in 1886. I may have to find out more about American voter registrations to find that out.

Thanks.

Thomas Musgrave's youngest daughter married in September 1889 in Carnegie, PA aged 18 to Thomas Prosser. Her 1900 census entry has her born March 1871 which ties in with her birth on 1 March 1871 in Durham, England.

Hi

That immigration year is wrong for her though as in 1900 it is stated as 1887. As said immigration years can be years out. She came with her father to the States in 1886.
