Hi,

Please could someone look for Isaac Hopkins b1888 & Jane Hopkins

b1891 and their daughter Ivy Hopkins b1910 all were born in

Durham,England.

They emigrated between 1911 & 1919.

Many Thanks
Val

Nothing showing up for any of them on Canada passenger lists I'm afraid.

Jonesey,

Thank You for looking

I apppreciate it,


Thanks Val

There are some Hopkins who went to Philadelphia in 1912 but the names are out. If you'd care to send me a pm, I can send the images and you can see what you think.

1 Feb 1912
there's a lady transcribed as Rourke Hopkins (I don't think the actual image says Rourke - it could be Ruthie) travelling with Janey Hopkins, an infant.

An Isaac Hopkins went to Philadelphia on the same ship (the Haverford) on 20 Nov 1912. It's possible that they went separately, though I would have expected him to go first. Unfortunately, there are a number of Hopkins registered by initials only...so too much of a task to sort through them all I'm afraid.

Kim

Have Pm'd you

Many Thanks
Val
