Hi All. I'm new to this list and I am searching for possible descendants of two of my father's uncles. Leonard TURLEY born about 1876 in Sedgley, Staffordshire, England emigrated to Pittsburgh, Pa. in 1906 age 20. He married and American lady (possibly Maggie) who was a school teacher, and I don't think they had any children. I am also led to believe that they ran a lodging house, and that the lady had several sisters. (I have a photograph of her with sisters and her father). --------------------- Joseph TURLEY born about 1864, also in Sedgley, Staffordshire, England, together with his wife Alice emigrated in 1907, (Joseph's age about 32). I found Alice later on in about 1912/13 on a ships manifest together with two children - Albert age 5 and May (no age given). The father of Leonard and Joseph was Thomas Turley, who was an iron moulder. I understand that they both worked in the steel industry in Pittsburgh, although I have found an address for Leonard Turley in New Brighton. (Is this a district of Pittsburgh?) Could anyone suggest how I could find out if either Albert or May had any children, as they still have a cousin alive in England. I think they would be 2nd cousins once removed to me. I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Best wishes Pat in England.
