Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Jane Smith and Florence (Florrie) Barrett
« on: Thursday 03 May 12 22:28 BST (UK)  »
In 1923 Jane and Florrie returned from their travels via New York heading for Leigh in Lancashire.
From then I have no idea what became of them.

Jane was the widow of Eldred Smith b 1879 son of Thomas Smith 1829 and Harriet (Calland) 1840 and Florrie was unmarried

They travelled with a friend Ernest J White b.1879 Leigh Lancs Who
 lived at 37 Vernon St. Pennington in Leigh in 1911

If anyone could tell me what became of them after 1923 .  I know that later they continued on their travels to Honolulu

Hoping someone can help me away from this Brick Wall

Could someone please look up emigration record of Robert L Brennicka B.1920 McHenry Illinois and his wife Florence (Barrett) b.1899 Halifax w yorkshire

They were married in Fylde (UK) Dec 1945
Although there seems to be quite an age difference

Robert was in the US Army serial no 36284555 enlisted in Milwaukee Wisconsin
He died nov 1985 Palm Beach Florida

Any other information would be wonderful

Florence was my fathers aunt and all the above information seems to be correct.
