william might not be a brother. Austin had a brother called William but I have his middle name as begining with O, this one is John. Just happens to be the correct age. I know that Astin is correct though

Not sure that above Willim is the right one as 1920 census says he emigrated in 1890.

And thanks again

Suffolk Sue
Thank you so much. They obviously didn't have children. Austin was m Gran's brother. Where did you find that please?
Oh!! I've just remembered that it was an Aunty Jenny who used to send nice dresses for me when I was a little girl in the early 50's.
I wonder what kind of life they had and if its possible to find out.
Thanks so much you have filled a gap and brought out memories.
Irene. xx

I am trying to locate two men who went to New York in June 1905. They were Austin Strickland and his bother William. Austin was born in Liverpool 1884 and William was about 2 years younger. They were headed for Brooklyn to an address I can't read. I do know that Austin was living at 853 Woodward Ave Brooklyn in June 1924 when his mother visited him.
Would anyone be able to help find either men on a census please?
I'm sorry I don't have any more info than that.
Thanks fo reading this.
