O thank you,  how can I go about finding if the one travelling to New York is the one.  Do you know the name of the ship ?     If I get a death certificate for the other one will it tell me where he was from.

www.ellisisland.org should have a passenger list to New York in 1910.  The site is free with registration.

However, the only Frank Purchase that I see that travelling in 1910 was born about 1903.

Thanks Shelley, will take a look at that, but it rather looks like I am back to square one.  Would love to know what happened to him.  He was my grandfathers brother, and no-one ever talked about him when I was young.    There was always a mystery about him.
