Thank you Choccy. Now I am confused lol. The info that Maddie kindly found on the return from USA with the three boys is them if she went over with my Father William Henry where was Samuel? I am trying to find out if she went back to Bostock or if that was a second Married name.

Elizabeth went with Samuel HENRY Harrison (named as Henry on the passenger list) and husband Samuel.

William Henry was born in the USA and he is on the 1915 USA New York State census with his father Samuel, mother Elizabeth and brother Samuel, and William Henry is on the census as Henry!

I am awaiting a reply to confirm that Elizabeth remarried and became a Bostock.
Which I think is the case.
Thank you all :-)

Ebbie Report 17 Nov 2013 14:37

Yes Maddie that does look like it could be them leaving for the USA.
Reggie on your family search message it shows Heward could this be my Father but also it should show Samuel my Fathers Brother as he is older than my Father was this not the case? Please.

Yes thank you Choccy that does look like them leaving I was getting confused as I thought Samuel, William and Frederick was born in the USA.

Would it be at all possible if we Could find out if Samuel (Father) ever returned to England and if he remarried please. :-)

Thank you Gins, yes it is a lot to take in I have listed what I believe to be correct, I know re my Fathers brothers etc but to know now his Fathers name is Great.
I would love to find someone still living on my Fathers Fathers side while My Father is still able to know what it's all about.

But I am truly grateful for all the info we have received today!
A huge thank you to every researcher involved. :-)

Hi Gins yes he did he returned with them from USA on the first page at the bottom of the message it says who returned with William.
What does shock me is if that is Frederick that died on the island we live about a mile the way the crow flys.
Thank you Gins
