    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AFB.2ACI/4756.1.1 Message Board Post: THanks for the suggestions, John. However, I have exhausted nearly everything you sugested. While I am confident that this is my ancester(s) I have no real proof the passengers on the Louisa were siblings. They were adults when they came to America, however, there is quite a seperation between the oldest and youngest. Also, the family "legend" is that there may have been cousins and/or brothers coming to America. Church records are limited but available, they offered no help in the marriage info. since parental info. was not recorded in the St. James records. Do City marriage cert. exist from the 1850's and do they list parentage of the applicants? Did everyone get a cert. from the City back then? Cemetery records were helpful in other areas, but no real info. regarding parentage was recorded. Naturalization records were also found but not much help on family members is recorde there also. The persons that came over on the same boat did not all apply for citizenship at th! e same time I think. Maybe the marriage cert. might be the best hope. What do you think?
