Can anyone please help solve my puzzle.
On the 1901 census Great Grandfather had his 17year old niece living with his family, her name was Amy Warren.
When my Grandparents went to USA in 1922 an Aunt was their sponsor, her name was Jane Warren.
I have her address 88 Riverside Avenue, Buffalo,
I have not come across the name of Warren in my family and so I have no facts about either of these ladies, how could I find out who lived in the Riverside Avenue with Jane Warren please?
I have looked at ships passenger lists but I don't know when she went to America to know which year to look at.

Do some research on Amy

Find her birth on the GRO index

Look for her in 1891

Try the 1920 US census for Jane

Thanks all. I did find Amy on the 1891 census, but for some reason struggled getting the US 1920 census, Thank you so much for your lookups for me - greatly appreciated.

So now you have Warrens in your tree, although Amy wasn’t actually a Warren, of course.
