My GG Grandmother , Hannah Campbell, was born in Pennsylvania, US in 1841- married (James Clent) in Birmingham 1863- I have the wedding cert. I can find her on 1881 Census, with this place of birth, but no more exact info. I would like to find out where she was born, and when she travelled to the UK. I would dearly love a little help or advise- Thanks Caroline

Carol Thanks very much. Hannah Josephine Campbell IS my GG Grandmother, but her father (according to marriage cert) was called John. I think I might have to bite to bullet and subscribe to US Ancestry (already subscriber to Ancestry) but it wont let me access US Censuses for 1850. Thanks again Caroline
