It turns out that Ellen's Uncle, Harvey Martin was already in the USA when she moved there. I cant find a passenger record for him but he was born in Braughing, Herts in 1867 and died in Washington State in 1937. He married an English girl, Agnes Sager in 1892 in Thurston. I do not have access to any USA records and it would be great if someone could let me have more information on their life in the USA,
Censuses state Harvey immigrated 1888/1889 and was naturalized in 1890. His wife Agnes immigrated in 1890.
