Hi.
I recently discovered some family members immigrated to the USA from England in 1854 and settled in Belvidere, Boone, Illinois. The family was John and Anne Bowley along with 5 children.
I am wondering if anyone here has any links or extra knowledge on the family. I have found them in the 1860, 1880, 1900 and 1910 census.

Hi dagebow
It may help for you to provide ages of the parents, the names & ages of their 5 children: plus any data you have regarding birth dates, marriages, children of the children, deaths, etc etc. Is census the only US based information you have on them to date - if so, perhaps then a summary of the Census you have?
This so we can see what you might need, and what we could be looking for - and to prevent us going over what you do already have.
This is a useful site:

Illinois Statewide Marriage Index, 1763–1900 : 18 Groom BOWLEY

There's an IGI record for
Adelbert N. Bowley, born 1880, Illinois (married Hattie Lorrane Reddington), died 1952, Irvington, Alameda, CA
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/frameset_search.asp
According to Wikipedia, Irvington was incorporated into the city of Fremont in 1956. Niles was also incorporated into Fremont.
(WWII Draft Registration Card
Dell Nelson Bowley

----------
I've seen the name Worsfold mentioned on copies of parish records from Shipley, Sussex. (I have ancestors from Shipley and Horsham - not Worsfold ancestors - but I remember seeing the name.) If you are interested, I can try to find to what it was referenced.

Thanks for the information Lisa.
I gained the name of Delbert's (Adelbert) wife via a census record and i haven't seen the name Hattie before - something to look into. As for the Worsfold's - i have seen the name in IGI searches but i have yet to link Anne with any of the others.

Hi Amber
The link you have provided above does not work - at least not for me. My pc just times out waiting for a response.
