Hi there,

Thanks for the kind offer!

I am looking for Miles William MEEHAN. He was born in 1886 in Darlington, England. I do not know when he emigrated to the USA but his wife Alice (born 1887) and children Richard (born 1908 in Darlington), Horace (born 1910 in Doncaster, England) and Kathleen (born 1912 Doncaster) arrived at Ellis Island in 1924. On the ships manifest it says they were going to join Miles Meehan and gave his address as 63 West 130th St, New York.

I have been told by other family members that they finally settled in New Jersey, but I do not know when that was or even if that's correct.

Thank you.

Wotty.
Meehan - Co Durham, Ireland, USA and Canada
Hopps -  Co Durham and N. Yks
Ward, Mortimer, Littleboy - Norfolk
Angus -  Co Durham
Pyle -  Co Durham and Northumberland
Rowntree -  N Yks and Co Durham

Dear Everyone (and Valerie):

I am looking for information regarding the arrival of First name: Giuseppe (or Guiseppe or Joseph), Surname: Brando ; he arrived in New York somewhere between 1877 and 1880, probably with Domenico (or Dominick) Brando (his toddler). I know that you have been looking up passenger ships from England in the New York passengers lists from 1851-1891 which also include ships and passengers from Italy.

Could somebody please be so kind to let me know if you find the arrival info of Guiseppe or Guiseppe or Joseph and last name Brando?  If so I wish it is included port of departure, city of origin, date of arrival, etc. Thanks!

Carla

Dear Jennifer:

Thank you so much for your help, but as far as I know my ancestor Guiseppe/Giuseppe (or Joseph or Jose) Brando arrived and stayed in USA for a couple of years and then departed from USA around 1881. He was living in Manhattan as per the 1880 census of June /1880. I know that he arrived between 1877 and 6/1880. I knew he had a kid not 2, is there any information regarding Guiseppe or Giuseppe or Joseph or Jose Brando few years before 1881 available? If so it will be great, if not thank you so much anyway for all your help.

PS: If somebody has more info than what pedigree is showing in the 1880 census that would be great, since it doesn't mention (pedigree's file) which city they were from, and if not if somebody has a scanned image of the census page that would be great. THanks.
