Hi Marie,
Ann was born 24th February 1884 in Morley ,Yorkshire,England and Mary Ellen was born 1st February 1882 in Morley Yorkshire,England. I have the birth certificates. I always thought they had emigrated in 1906/7?

It is quite a few years since I researched this family line,and being "stuck" on another surname decided to recheck this family.
I have 2 Barraclough sisters who emigrated to the USA in 1906.
1) Mary Ellen Barraclough. This one I have found before on the 1930 USA census records. At this time she is married to a Harry Hinccliffe and as 5 children. According to census Harry was born in Pennsylvania ( aged 49 on census,Mary is 48) Anyone able to find a birth for Harry and a marriage for him to Mary.
2)Ann Barraclough. never been able to find anything about her since her emigration in 1906, so any info would be gratefully received.
