Curtis family from Cornwall to michigan?
« on: Thursday 07 June 12 15:41 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find immigration records for John and Selina Curtis going from Cornwall to Michigan. They are in Cornwall in 1901 then vanish, not on 1911 census....so would be in this timeframe. Thank you

Can't see husband John with her,  but there is a 10 year old Katie on the list.  Still looking for John, he may have gone ahead.  But just looking at Sandra's information, Katie is born in Michigan.  I'll try to look at the original manifest.

be right back!

Haha thank you!  ;D.......according to our records Katie was born in Cornwall, so this is an error

John and Selina apparently divorced in 1911.........so may not be together.....

Selina Curtis is in the Marquette, Michigan, City Directory, 1912 - address 402 Gold.
Kate is also listed at that address. No John

William and Lottie are under the surname Venton on the 1901 UK Census. William is under Venton on the WW1 Draft
