Paul Richard DAWSON and family
« on: Friday 03 December 10 13:24 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I am looking to find a birth of a Paul Richard DAWSON around 1890/91 New York USA. Parents are Samuel Constantine DAWSON and Catherine DAWSON.
Both parents born around 1859 England.
Also looking for immigration of this family from Sydney NSW to England via New York where this Paul Richard DAWSON was apparently born. Maybe born at sea!!
Other Siblings travelling also were
Samuel Dawson
John Owen Dawson
Catherine Alma Dawson and Hugh Francis Carlin DAWSON
Any help with this will be most appreciated.
Kind regards
Karen.

Thanks for these, it is the family I am looking for. I am still unsure where Paul Richard Dawson was born.  The family seemed to have traveled between England, Sydney NSW and New York from what I have seen on the passenger lists.
They were on the 1891 english census but not Paul and then traveled to New York in Sept 1891 without Paul again.
I am wondering if he was born at sea? Is there anywhere I can check this please?
Thanks
Karen.

The family on Ancestry is the right one also but Paul Richard Dawson father was Samuel Constantine Dawson not Samuel James Dawson as stated as I have Paul's marriage certificate and it states the father as Samuel Constantine Dawson. Will have to double check some of there sources.
Paul marriage states he was American town of New York!
Thanks
Karen.

Here are 3 male Dawson's born in New York City .... but you would have to send for the Certificates to verify:

Richard Dawson   28 Sep 1891   35545

Male Dawson   16 Oct 1891   36583 (I notice a female Dawson was also born on this date Cert# 38582-twins?) and this birth was in Brooklyn.

Male Dawson   30 Aug 1892   34019

August 1892 from New York to Liverpool on the ship Britannic:

Kate Dawson age 33 WIDOW
Saml Dawson age 12
John Dawson age 9
Kate Dawson age 5
Caroline Dawson age 2 (this could be Carlin, right?)
Robt Dawson age 10 months

Do you think this is your Dawson family? and if it is they have the infant listed as Robert.  Did Samuel Dawson, the father, die in the USA?
