Hi EABS,
That Thomas is my 3x Great Uncle- he is a man of mystery as no one knows if he died in the UK or USA- do you know please?

There's a plot at Greenfield Cemetry with eight people in it but nobody knows who they are.
I'm in contact with a descendant of Thomson & it is presumed he & his wife Lucy (Huvler) are in there (she died 1963) & at least four children died before her.
Just found the plot detail-its the parents & six children

I did discover that some "Wrights" from Norfolk emigrated abt 1680 to Oyster Bay,Nassau County,New York & wonder if they were where Hannah & Jesse were headed.
I understand they were not well off but they had a cabin (as did Thomson) & we thought there may be a possibility that relatives had paid for their passage.
Alledgedly Hannah's husband was violent & she had to get away.

Hannah is my 2xG.Grandmother born 17 Jan 1833 in Mileham, Norfolk, England
She sailed from Liverpool on the SS Servia & arrived in New York 18th April 1887. I can find no further information & would really appreciate some help.
Her Daughter Jesse sailed with her & she married Bion Rayon deMott & Frank Walker & lived in Nassau.
Her Son Tomson Garner Wright arrived the following year & also lived in Nassau until he died in 1908.
She does not appear to be with them on any censuses. Her surname was Eastoe for a while.

Hi,
I do indeed... she had 16 children altogether.
Thompson was born 17.03.1867 in Kings Lynn Norfolk & died 29.03.1909 Roosevelt,Nassau County New York. He was married to Lucy Huvler in 1889 (she was born 14.10.1870 Mount Vernon Knox,Ohio).
Jessie Maria (Mary) was born 21.03.1870 in Kings Lynn Norfolk.When she arrived in the USA she married Bion (Benjamin) Rayon DeMott in 1890 & Frank Walker in abt 1905-I have no death for her but on the 1910 Census she is living at Hempstead District 5, Nassau, New York.
I have them both on UK & American census's
Hannah Wright was married twice-Henry James Wright 10.07.1854 & Henry Eastoe 02.06.1879 both in the UK (Norfolk).It's rumoured "she left in a hurry" ,otherwise I can't find anything else about her.
Any help or clues very much appreciated.

This is my G.G.Grandmother who was born in Mileham,Norfolk.She married twice & in 1887 got on the SS Servia,sailed to New York with her daughter.She arrived on 18th April & then vanishes completely.
The daughter who sailed with her (Jesse Maria Wright known as Mary) settled in Nassau & a year later her son sailed over (Thompson Garner Wright) & he settled in Freeport & died in Roosevelt Nassau.
I'd really like to find out where she went,I can find no trace.Any help gratefully received.
