Hi!
Can anyone help me to trace these siblings please??

Mary aged 25, Joseph aged 24 and David aged 20 arrived aboard the Sheridan in 1848 into New York. They came from England, but were Irish.

According to family letters they appear to have moved to Georgetown, DC.
By 1850 Mary had apparently married- but I do not know to whome.

I have found a D. Adams of the right age living with his wife Eliza Adams and their 2 month old son in Georgetown in 1850. I cannot find any further details of the marriage, or a later death of this David to confirm he is the same man.

The only other details I have about these siblings is that their father was john Adams a butcher, in Ireland. They had a sister Ann who remained in Yorkshire, and eventually emigrated to Australia.

Can anyone help track down these 3 siblings please??
THanks so much
Kylie
