Date of death and USA passenger list help needed

[flossie1]

Hi.  I am trying to find the date of death for James Viggers born in 1840 - not sure where, but he married Mary Tasker Sept 1858.  In Sept 1877 Mary married Alfred Turner.  I can't find any information as to what happened to James.  Also it appears that Alfred and Mary went to Marshall, West Virginia as they are recorded there in 1900.  I have tried to find them on passenger lists but am struggling as I am not sure even where they would have sailed from.  Not much to go on and a very long shot but can anyone help please.

Hi, think this is the family in 1891 - possibly including Mary's mother Anne.
Class: RG12; Piece: 1184; Folio: 58; Page: 2;

Foundry Street, Neithorpe, Banbury
 Alfred Turner  60
 Mary Turner  52
 Anne Tasker  80
 Charles Viggers  23
 Frederick Turner  12

The household next door is headed by 58 year old widow Lydia Viggers.

There is also an immigration record of a Mary Turner emigrating to USA on 4 August 1892 from Liverpool to Boston on board the Pavonia.  She is listed as being 54 (born 1839) as described as wife.

Just looking for Mary Turner in 1901 to confirm that she emigrated in 1892 as per post above when I came across this.  A group of nuns in Selly Hill, Northfield, Worcestershire.

Only reason I wondered is that there is a Mary Turner of the right age born Banbury and also a Sarah Tasker born Banbury which made me think.

Below is only a short extract from a very long list!

Hi, as Sandra says it appears that the Alfred Turner & Mary née Tasker formerly Viggers living in Neithorpe in 1881 (details below) are probably not the same couple as living in Marshall, West Virginia in 1880 as they are unlikely to have returned by 1881.

This is the 1881 census record of Mary and Alfred still living in Foundry Street.  Incidentally this time the household next door is headed by a Thomas Viggers.

Where did your info about the Turners in Marshall come from originally?
