Incoming Passenger lists from NY
« on: Friday 27 November 09 22:12 GMT (UK) »
Are ther incoming passenger lists from NY Late 1874 - 1878.   Esther Warner married William Edley September 1873 NY.   Willam originally from Sheffield UK. They Lived Galt Waterloo Ontario until late 1874. Sometime after that they came back to Sheffield UK.  I guess Esther may have travelled on Williams Passport under her married name, or even obtained a seperate one.  Any help Appreciated.

Just a note: they would be unlikely to have passports at this time.

Incoming passenger lists start in the UK from 1878 (before this time they were not regularly recorded). As on the 1881 census they seem to have a daughter, Ada, born 1876 in Yorkshire, it is unlikely you will find any passenger lists for them.

jorose.     Thank You Appreciate your reply.  I have details of the family and I know Esther was born in NY. I was hoping that any details on the documents if any would give exact details of her birth.
