Whatever happened to Cousin Samuel Henry James in New Jersey?
« on: Thursday 21 January 21 17:33 GMT (UK) »
Please can anyone help with a Look up request. I have a distant Cousin who has gone off the radar. Samuel Henry James was born in 1909 Newlyn Cornwall. I know he emigrated to the US around 1930 aged 21 by a census record ( in The Bronx N Y)  Samuel was staying with his Uncle Samuel Alder. I don't know what happened to Sam James after 1930 and would like to know if he had a Family?. I appreciate any help/support here thank you.

Seems to be a trend by Tornado of failing to acknowledge info posted
