USA: Walter Swallow assistance please
« on: Tuesday 23 December 08 07:04 GMT (UK) »
Walter Swallow went to New York as a single man in 1904.  He went again in 1907, but this time as a married man with his wife Ellen Swallow -- by then they were living in 3rd Avenue New York (from the Ellis Island site).  I am not sure I can find a marriage for him in England, and in 1907 they had both been in the US before for several years.  Can anyone tell me if he arrived in Britain with a wife?  I imagine he was just visiting, and may well have come in 1907.
thanks

Hi Diane

I can see a Walter SWALLOW married 29 coachman landing at Plymouth, UK with a Mrs SWALLOW (2?)2 (second class British passengers) on the "Majestic" from New York to Southampton arriving 7 Nov 1907 - would they fit?

sorry to be so slow, i have not been checking my old email address where the messages are going.  I will check when he left britain in 1907, but have since discovered that there were a few walter swallows -- how confusing.  thank you so much for your help
regards
