I thought this might be the daughter Mrs. Buckley, nee Farr, but no it's the mother's marriage to Thomas Priest!

I think on that 1899 passenger list they're going to join daughter Mrs. Buckley, 6682 B?? Ave., Roxburgh. The other column says they're going to Roxburgh, Phila. I think you're right Roxburgh must be a suburb of Philadelphia.
Mary Ellen & Lillie list Mrs. Buckley as sister so presumably she was a Farr? Although Thomas Priest lists her as daughter. I don't know!!!

I don't know why George is single and Mary is married. Not even sure it's them!!

Maureen

PS-I just know my s-in-law will call any minute,so don't be surprised if I disappear!

So the question is which of the Farr girls married George Lockwood in the US?

I'm just looking at the incoming to Philly records. Guess who they traveled with? Thomas and Elizabeth Priest!!

Margaret-can you decipher where/who they're going to? It's a married Priest daughter?? Buckley?? in Roxborough (a neighbourhood in Philadelphia).

Maureen

double OOH...

on the 1891 Mary E is a "woollen shawl fringer"!

oooh!
