Lots of my Fuller family emmigrated to the US in the 1870s. A father , his wife and some of their 10 children with spouses and children also. Is there anywhere online or does someone have records to this please? They were in Iowa in the US 1880 census. I know find my past has emmigration but i beleive it is only from the 1890s onwards. Any ideas please? Thank you , Rebecca.

Thank you Lorriane. There are lots of them but please could you start with George Fuller b1820 wicken England, settled in Iowa and also his wife Hannah b.1821, also settled in Iowa. One of thier daughters was called Mina Fuller b.1860 in Wicken England. I can not find her anywhere in the uk after the 1871 census and i suspect she also went with them. It is possible that she married quite young in about 78/79 in Iowa as i cannot find her as Mina Fuller in the 1880 census. Thank you for your time on this one, Rebecca.

Thank you Lorriane, i had a quick look on Familysearch for Mina and found a possible for her in the 1880 which meant she would have married .She is listed in Iowa with her husband William W Bailey and one daughter too, is there anywhere you are able to check to see if this was Mina Fuller before she married a Bailey? Thank you.

Lorriane thank yuo for all your kind help with this family. I have also discovered that another son went across with wife and children, it is an unusual name so it should be easier.
His name was Johnson Fuller nad his wife was Mary Ann. Mary Ann died in 1884. Johnson died in Texas in 1923 but are you able to find him on any otrher census for me please. I have him on the 1880 already thank you Rebecca.
