US Lookup Requests / Re: Redfearn
« on: Monday 01 December 08 13:18 GMT (UK) »I would say they immigrated in 1886 as son James was born in Yorkshire 1884. Thanks
In the 1910 Census, it says James was born in Massachusetts. I also found the family in the 1900 Census in Fall River, Massachusetts with 3 older children that weren't around in 1910 - Albert, Annie, and Wilfred - and that says that James was born Feb. 1883 in Massachusetts. The 1900 Census says they immigrated in 1881 and Sarah was born Jun. 1881.

In the 1910 Census, James C. Redfearn & wife Mary J. were in Haverhill, Mass. with sons James and Alec and daughter Sarah J. It says James, Mary, and Sarah immigrated in 1886.
In the 1920 Census, James & Mary are still in Haverhill and it says they immigrated in 1883.

Just my opinion, but I really think it would be easier to keep all the information about one person in one thread. If you have new information, you can post it to the thread that already exists and people will read it.
Also, I think I've posted this twice before, but the West Brighton address was not for Bernard - it was for the person listed below him. The most recent address for Bernard, from the 1925 passenger list, is 650 North 38th Street, Philadelphia, Pa.

1910 Census, Chicago
11134 Parnell Ave.
Wilson, Arthur, age 41, married once for 19 years, born England, parents born England, immigrated 1892, naturalized, occupation hard to read - maybe foreman, car factory?
wife Annie, age 39, married once for 19 years, mother of 3 children, 2 of whom are living, born England, parents born England, immigrated 1892
son Herbert, age 15, born Illinois, parents born England
son James N., age 13, born Illinois, parents born England

brother-in-law Crowden or Crowder?, William H., white, age 20, single, born England, parents born England, immigrated 1906, alien, occupation - toolmaker, car factory
If Randall is the right father, he appears to be in the death index I linked to above and died in 1911. I also found him and his son Henry on a passenger list from 1905 going to join Arthur Wilson at 11034 Charles Ave., Roseland, Chicago.
1930 Census, Chicago

Didn't we figure out that the 650 North 38th St., Philadelphia address was the right one? That would have been more recent than the Simpson address.
