Thread: trying to find

Hi,

I found my g.grandfather Joseph Brewer on s.s. servia 1888 travelling from Liverpool to New York, but there was no mention anywhere of his wife Hannah or Annie their daughter. I know they all went to America as my grandmother and her brother were both born there, but we have no idea where.

Joseph, Hannah and Annie were all on the 1881 Bradford Census, but none were found again until the 1901 census. where there was no mention of Annie.

The story my nan used to tell was that the family sold everything and went to America to make their fortunes in the gold rush, they had another child a son and then my nan and her brother, the two older siblings died while in USA, I haven't found anything at all whilst looking, I was wondering if there were any cesus records still available for the year 1890 / 1891 in US. and if so where would I be able to find them.

I would be very grateful if any one could help me, as this has become my brick wall, and I would so much like to find out what happened to them.

Joseph Brewer born 1859 Tong, Bradford

Hannah Brewer born 1860 Tong Bradford

Married 1880 Bradford Parish Church

Annie Brewer Born 1880 Tong Bradford

Other Children Born in USA that I know of

Joseph K. Brewer Born 1893 USA

Mary Elizabeth Brewer Born 1894 USA

Returned home around 1898/99

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Sorry, there is nothing showing for Joseph in either 1900 or 1910 USA Census.

I have also checked ALL USA Imigration sailings and can find no other family member following Joseph's journey to New York.
