« on: Friday 04 July 08 19:38 BST (UK) »

Hi I'm Joanna I wonder if you could find when my g aunt went to the u.s in 1905/7 and if possible what ship she went on .The details are
Agnes ( Bridget) ? Dolan born about 1885 plus
Parents Thomas Dolan Eliza Harrington
of Pollalhar Brideswell Athlone Co Roscommon
she went to Boston Ma
She married Frank Ocallahan in 1911 in Dorchester Ma I think
I dont know which port she sailed from or the name of the ship ,I have tried many times to find her also where would she get her passport from .I have wrote to London but didn"t get a reply also to Dublin and Cork with no success I would be very grateful for anything you can find ,I have also been trying to find her sister
Mary Ellen Dolan who also went to Boston around 1895/7same parents
she married Edward Frankliin Ellis in Medford Boston in 1903 .her birth was down as 1875 but I think she was born before then ,I would be grateful if you could find what ship she sailed on and where she would apply for a passport if they needed one then ,Thank you for looking up the impossible for me and everyone, without you we would have nothing ,

Joanna

Looks like others have already looked for the information requested here (thanks grub for posting links to previous messages to save us all from repeating what's already been done).

Joanna- suggest you approach the problem from a different angle. www.findmypast.com now has lists of passengers leaving the U.K. 1890-1960 and you can search there for free putting in names and arriving in U.S. (if too many results put in Boston as arrival city as that seems to be most likely port going by available information). If you find the people you are looking for you can then subscribe and see name of ship and date of arrival and then request lookups from Ancestry database of passenger lists if you don't have a subscription to Ancestry.com.
