Look up Help please.for Robertson
« on: Thursday 22 April 10 15:21 BST (UK) »
 I am looking for information please,

for a Catherine Robertson who left England on a ship named Regina,they left Liverpool March 10th 1929.
 She travelled  with her children.Robert,born 1908 Albert 1909.Irene 1915.
  I knew where they lived in England but would love to know where they eventually settled in America.
Apart from finding that (*) Robertson[i think it was Catherine's Grandson] became an Ice Skater  in the 1950's..Any help on this family would be much appreciated.
Thank you for your  time.Vi

The passenger list for the Regina shows that the family was going to join husband/father Peter Robertson, 234 West 6th Avenue, Tarentrum, Pennsylvania.  Their final destination was listed as Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - perhaps they were taking a train to Pittsburgh and Peter was going to meet them?
