My Grandfather and Grandmother, according to what I remember emigrated to America and didn't like it so came home again. All I know about them is that they married in Donegal. Ireland on 11th May 1903. His name was Cornelius McColl and hers was Hannah McColl nee Ward. She was born around 1878, I think in Donegal and he was born in Glasgow, Scotland on May 7th 1882. Hannah died 15th Feb 1955, aged 77, in Glasgow and her parents were Peter Ward and Grace Ward nee Kelly. Cornelius died 30th August 1937 in Glasgow and his parents were Patrick McColl (or McCall or McHall) and Mary McColl nee Sweeney. I have hit a brick wall with the Irish side of things and would appreciate any help or advise. Thanks. Ellen. I should have said my Mother was born in Glasgow in 1912 so emigration would have been between 1903 and 1912.

Should have said nos 29 & 30 on manifest: don't know if they are connected to your family, but odd that McColl line 31 was not linked with Hannah and Mary.

You might want to look at ITSG website: http://immigrantships.net/
I also found a Cornlieus McColl listed here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~donegal/templecrone.htm
Valuation for 1857: Mc Coll Cornelius Rutland Island or Inishmacadurn Templecrone Donegal
Too early to be yours, but might be family....
Try www.multimap.com to find Bayonne Address. Bayonne is Hudson County NJ.
Have you posted for info on Irish and US boards?
