Could anyone advise on how I can find out when people who emigrated came home?

Someone helped me some time ago (Soooo sorry, I can't remember who it was!) find my people when they emigrated. They were Frederick Foster and Millicent Morris on the Sardinia arriving New York 1851. I don't know if they were acquainted at the time but they were (!) by 1854 as they had a daugher Mary born Galen, NY State. I should like to know when they came home as they had twins in Colsterworth Lincs in 1858 and the family remained in Lincolshire from then on. Thanks in advance Rose (will look in later - off to walk the dog now)

Hi Rose. I don't know about people returning to the UK (I have a hard enough time trying to find mine going to Canada) :), but I've used this site in the past: http://www.cyndislist*com/england.htm (replace * with .) for guidance. Hope it helps.

Thank you Lisa, I will have a look at that to see if I can find them coming home.
