Thanks Sandra, I have carefully gone through all that information.

I have lost Jane Smith born 1860 Marple, Stockport, England ...  Jane is on the 1875 census in Johnston, Providence, Rhode Island, USA, living with her parents and siblings, but Alice isn't.

Jane is in North Smithfield with her parents in 1880

Thanks Sandra, I have carefully gone through all that information.

I have lost Jane Smith born 1860 Marple, Stockport, England and her sister Alice Smith born 1862 Stockport, England.  Jane is on the 1875 census in Johnston, Providence, Rhode Island, USA, living with her parents and siblings, but Alice isn't.

There is a possibility that Jane is the same person as a Jane Smith on a New York passenger list, birth date about 1860, departure location Liverpool, England and Queenstown, Ireland.  Arrival location, New York.  Arrival date, 3rd May 1880.

I am fairly certain it is Joseph Smith who died age 15 in Johnston, Providence, Rhode Island, in 1874.

Yes, that looks about right - FIND A GRAVE - also noted in your other thread replies 12 and 13 

Joseph Smith Jnr 10 July 1874. Aged 15 years.

North Burial Ground Providence, Providence County, Rhode Island.

My last sighting of Jane was 1880 with parents as oldohiohome has just pointed out.

Thanks for the Find a Grave link to Joseph, I hadn't seen that.  Also the 1880 census for Jane, which shows she worked in a cotton mill.  I will follow up with googling the history of the area and cotton mills in Rhode Island, as Oldohiohome suggested, "lots of local color background on Slatersville and the mills there, if you are interested in that end. Just Google the village name - it is where they were in 1880  if you look at the image. It is a village within North Smithfield"

Jane after 1880 and Alice I struggled to find them with no success.

could this be Alice?

That looks likely yes.  She disappears from records early on.

and could this be Jane? Woonsocket borders N. Smithfield, and both bride and groom resided in Slatersville. Not sure yet why they would go to Woon. to be married. Choice of denomination maybe?
