Posting the 1901 FMP census transcription - he appears to be a patient of some kind, along with the others.

The occupation looks like 'dressing 6 inch shells' (?) - the right sort of occupation

Have just come across a partial entry for Henry Ingram in 1920 US Census in Essex, New Jersey, but as Henery Ingran. No further info available.

The UK incoming passenger lists for 1878 to 1960 (series BT 26). Is this what to consult to see if someone has returned from USA after eg 30 years? Does it only cover those who intend to stay in UK, ie not here just for a short visit of are they included too?

Geoff

Geoff Report 1 Jul 2010 00:05

Is there a particular department (an archive?) within US Social Security which holds records of Social Security numbers given to immigrants (in this case Henry & Florence Ingram, UK citizens but resident in New Jersey 1910-1830 and beyond). Also is there a US government department (naturalization?) which has records of aliens becoming US citizens?

The UK incoming passenger list 1878-1960 show the images from the passenger lists, regardless of whether they are visitors, or intend to make the UK their permanent residence. There is a column where this is indicated ie last place of permanent residence/ intended place of permanent residence. That may only indicate a country. Some records show the destination eg c/o Joe Bloggs, 21 The Street, New Town, County etc
