I havent yet traced which boat they arrived on but believe it was around 1860. I have assembled the following tree from various sources, and would be pleased to hear from anyone who can contribute to it. http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=REG&db=brownmears&id=P3706774815 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
