Yes MarieCeleste that's the problem but I was hoping to find them coming back or even on a census in the USA.... the trouble is I don't know exactly where he was born?

In the 1891 it says Washington America, in 1901 it says Mc Donald, United States and in 1911 it just says U S of America?

Oh well I'll have to forget about him for a while I suppose!

Thanks for your help anyway,
Cheers,
Cathy

Problem is that outgoing passenger lists on Find My Past are from 1890 to 1960, so if they went before 1890 then there'll not be much chance of finding them outgoing.

Ellis Island records are 1892 to 1924.

Hi,
Please........ can anyone find this family on a passenger list to or from USA?
I've searched so many times but I've come up with ziltch! They obviously went after my grandmother Mary Sophia was born in Dec 1886 and were back in 1891 for the census.
It would be brilliant if anyone can find them :-)

Kind regards,
Cathy
