Could anybody please have a look if a Francis Dickinson emigrated..the bad news is i don't know where. he was born in 1865 to Jane Bland and Francis Dickinson also. his birth place was Flookburgh and he is last there on the 1881 census, but then dissappears, there is a possiblity that he is on the 1891 census as living at Carnforth with a Ann Fisher and Dickinson is spelt Dickenson but not sure, i can't find a death for him so i'm assuming he emigrated, could anybody please have a look and see if there is a Francis Dickinson/Dickenson and perhaps Ann Fisher leaving the country after 1891 any help would be much appreciated regards angela

Angela Have found this marriage for a Francis Dickinson to an Alice Fisher Francis Dickenson 1888 Apr-May-Jun Lancaster Lancashire View Record Alice Fisher 1888 Apr-May-Jun Lancaster Lancashire Looked on the 1891 census there is a Francis and Alice Fisher with a John Fisher aged one at Carnforth. Looks like they were living with Alice's sister. Looked on findmypast but no listing for immigration. Will endeavour to find them

Many thanks for your time and Kindness in searching for this Family, it's been a brick wall for a long time, it was by accident of changing the spelling of Dickinson to Dickenson that i've got this far, it's just with not finding a death for him that i thought he may have emigrated....... kind regards angela
