Can anyone please give me some advise on how I can find the ship John Crook his wife Emma and seven children sailed on from England to the USA in 1881.They would have paid there own fares the family story goes they arrived in New York. I don't know the date of departure but have narrowed it down to after the April 1881 census were taken because John is shown as a photographer living in Commercial Street, Civil Parish Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire.I also found in the Gloucestershire Mercury News Paper May 6th 1881 an Auction of all their house hold goods in it it said " House hold goods of Mr J.Crook who has left the neighbourhood etc etc ". By February 1882 they were living in Rockwood Tennesse where their eldest child die from the Typhoid epedemic. Regards Kilrudden.
