Where would I find more information on my grandfather ? He was known as Frederick William Harrison when he married my nan (Dorothea Holland) on 27/12/1939.in Handsworth.

I believe his original surname is Schmidt since I can remember when he died his original birth certificate said so and that he was born Phildelphia, NY. But that was a long time ago.

His father was William Charles Harrison according to their Wedding certificate.

I believe they've changed their surname twice. Either here or in America.

I also believe he had a brother and sister here in the UK. And possible half brothers and sisters too but they may have been back in America.

The family is also believed to come from Germany originally before America but I'm not sure how far back.

Where would I go to find out Passenger list from USA to UK for around 1903 / 1920. He was in the UK before 1920 since he'd married an Amelia Binns in Hansworth too.

And where would I get information about the family in America ?

Thanks, if anyone can assist since I've not got a lot to go on.
