    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: BrianMartin629 Surnames: Henry Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.researchresources.brick-20-walls/416.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I had a search on the passengers lists on Ancestry for passengers named Henry, going from Ireland to Philadelphia before 1825. Here are the Henrys who came up... All these arrived at Philadelphia. James Henry, arrived 29 Aug 1817 on "Nestor" from Belfast. He was from Derry, and he was ship's crew. Jno Henry, arrived on same ship. He was aged 25, born abt 1792. And Ellen Henry, aged 60 was also on this ship. They all came from Morriecarry, Derry. Spencer Henry arrived 17 Aug 1816 on "Charlotte" from Londonderry. ....Henry [First name missing] b abt 1790. Abraham Henry arrived 19 Jul 1825 on "Emeline" from Newry. He was aged 25, born abt 1800. (He was crew - a seaman) Alexander Henry arrived 17 Jun 1815 from Liverpool on the Betsey. Robert Henry was on the same ship. Charly Henry arrived 23 May 1816 from Glasgow on the Alexander. Alexander Henry arrived 18 Jun 1812 from Newry on the Rising States. He was born abt 1791. Michael Henry arrived 9 Jul 1811 from Newry on the Rising States. He was born 1787. And Margaret Henry was on the same ship, born abt 1789. There were only a few others, dated further back in 1807 and 1808. If I were you, I would try census searches for the easiest names above like Spencer Henry, or Jno [who is the right marrying age], and possibly also try looking for Alexander. ...Are there any handed-down names in your Henry side of the family that are the same as any of the above christian names?
