I can tell you where my family has gone. Thomas and Mary Dawson Lowe were married in 1800 in Alford, Lincolnshire England. Among their children were Richard and Joseph Lowe. Richard,s oldest child, Amos and his Uncle Joseph came to America in 1850. They came o the ship Delia Maria which was a packet ship which shipped from Hull England in Sept. 1850. The following spring, Richard and His wife Elizabeth Teesdale Lowe and their other 5 children Sailed from Liverpool on the ship TRY. These 7 were all on the 1851 census just before leaving for America. This family came into America thru the Port of NY. They quickly found their way to Wisconsin where the were finally able to own land. In the 1880s most of the children came to California on the immigrant Train and most of the family still lives there. A few of the older ones remained in Wisconsin. Amos and his wife Mary Barrows Lowe had 14 children, 12 of whom lived to Adulthood. I should mention that Amos was not only able to own land in Wisconsin and California, but also was a Justice of the Peace (judge) in both places. This was a poor English family who had no hope in England. Amos had many other accolades in America as did their Families in America. Richard's brother Thomas was transported to Tazmania for stealing a sheep. His wife and children had to remain in England. I also have to mention that many of the people died and Families were no longer having such large families. I would mention that my second cousin Danyce Gustafson, has written an excellent book that was just released. It is about the life of poor families in England in the 1800s based upon many of the things that happened to ours. It is really worth having to read and on your shelf. I can Tell you that I stayed up all night reading it. If anyone is interested contact me or Danyce and we can tell you how to get it. It certainly helps explain why so many left England. The name of the book is STONE'S HOPE. Velma Sent from my iPad
