Pelton Manor. New York
« on: Saturday 17 November 12 16:31 GMT (UK) »
Hoping for some help .
I have found a family member, Arthur Stannard, born 1884 ,Stafford England . He worked as a Stud Groom at Bolton Priory ,Pelton Manor , New York .
It appears he came to New York around 1905 , then in 1915 his employer paid his passage  to UK and he volunteered to fight for his country  , then after the end of WW1 he returned to NewYork  Nov 10 1919.
His ex employer Fredrick Allen again paid his passage .
I was hoping to find more information on Arthur after his return , is there anywhere I could access that might help in my search ?
Any help appreciated

Could the name of the town have been "Pelham Manor", not "Pelton Manor"?

Bolton Priory in Pelham Manor, New York is a well-known landmark. Putting bolton priory pelham manor into a search engine like Google brings up lots of information and pictures.

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Thankyou all for the replies .
You are right Genealiza it is Pelham my spelling mistake

Hi Sandra..some of your message makes sense but Arthur was in the Military1915-1919 .

Arthur did originate from Rickerscote, Stafford and Mr G Hill was his uncle.
Seems that Arthur was not married and travelled to and from UK/USA a number of times ..I was hoping he might have had a family in USA..

Aghadowey...I have seen the information on Pelham Manor

This 1914 trip to New York has him going to join a person in Pelham Manor - https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JJ9B-XXQ  It says he had never been in the US before.
