Possibly James in 1870

1870 United States Federal Census

OK, have found them in 1860 !!

So this narrows down your search a little. The census was taken beginning of August 1860 and they then appear on the UK census April 1861 so you have an 8 month window to find them coming back to england....

....and more children!!!

1860 United States Federal Census

Lambert Watkins 53
Martha Watkins 42
Almeda Watkins 19
William Murray 31

James Murray 9
William Murray 7
Elizabeth Murray 5
Euphemia Murray 3
Mary Murray 9.12


Ignore the Watkins they are a seperate family ...maybe sharing the house?

Hmmm i'll keep digging

EDIT

On closer inspection looks like James, William & Elizabeth were all born New York. So did they have James a little early? Could he of actually been a UK birth?



Tracey

Bearing in mind Mother & Mary were living in Detriot Michigan.

I found this death....

Name: Euphemia Murray
SSN: 385-38-0663
Last Residence: 48238 Detroit, Wayne, Michigan, United States of America
Born: 2 Jan 1895
Died: Nov 1969
State (Year) SSN issued: Michigan (1956 )


The dates could well fit with John the son having a daughter called Euphemia?

Just adding to the data a little....


Tracey

Maybe Euphimia in 1910??

This is Euphimia & Mary (mother & daughter)

The transcriber has got this a little bit wrong, the way the 8 on '84' is written it does look like a 3 !!

This is 84 yr old Euphimia and her Daughter Mary 47!!!

I can see no-one obvious with her, but then the writing is baaaad !!

I'll try and see what i can find on the kids.

Tracey

Could well be! I have her birth as 1824 but we know how wrong that can be! Any sign of the Kids or William Murray

Thank you so much for your help. I have been stuck on this one for ages & it seems like most have lost interest.
