list myself of them returning on the 3rd aug 1892 on the ship majestic
there's one name missing on the return journey. ( ann dowd born 1873

Sadly the 1890 US census was destroyed by fire and is not available

She doesn't appear in the index for the 1900 census as Ann Dowd. Of course if she got married she would be under a different name, and sadly the US census only lists place of birth outside the US by country, so there would be far too many Anns born in England to know whether it was her without the surname. Do you know where in the US they were living?
