I have been looking for Ships Passenger records for 1861 as they were in the US by 1862 where they had a daughter born in McLean Co IL USA. Nothing much found most records 11860 and 1862. Not much for 1861. Need to know if son John and daughter Margaret were with them when they came here as John died in 1878 as a widower having 6 children living with him as his wife died in 1872 possibly in childbirth. There was a daughter Margaret born 1862, Elizabeth born 1863, James born 1864, Mary born 1867, Thomas Patrick born 1869 and daughter Katherine born 1872.
