Wow where do I start lol, I think you on something there Reggie.
I really don't know if they was married here or in the US. When they returned they stayed around the Cheshire / Manchester area. At some point I'm quite sure they lived in Adcroft St, Stockport. My Father was Born in 1914 , William and is still with us.
Thank you Reggie and Flip

Perhaps someone who subscribes to Ancestry would be good enough to look up incoming passengers

Was your father named Harrison at birth?

Where in England did they settle after they returned from the USA?

What is your fathers christian name, and what year was he born? Did his mother marry Mr Harrison, and if so was that in US or here?

So Elizabeth Bostock married someone named Harrison....was that in the UK?

Or did she perhaps not marry the father?

Have you looked for a marriage?

When and where was Elizabeth born?

When was your father born?
