Her mother was Harriet but she died in 1846 in Philadelphia. Harriet was born in Gloucestershire in 1804. I think they must have emigrated between 1842 and 1846. Harriet married Joseph in 1834 in England.

I don't have Ancestry worldwide but it looks like there were two American Civil War soldiers by that name, so let's hope somebody can look it up for you.
