Edward MAY
« on: Sunday 28 August 11 16:35 BST (UK) »
Hi

I am trying to trace any family of Edward May who was born at Little Starta, Lanlivery, Cornwall on 16th June 1883.  His fathers name was Thomas May and his mothers name was Emmeline Harper.

He emigrated to America in 1906 sailing on the Carmania from Liverpool and arriving in Ellis Island on 2nd May 1906.   He is shown as being single aged 22 and a carpenter bound for Pittsburg.

That is all I know.

I would be grateful for any information.

Thanks
