Ian, are you expecting to see incoming passengers from Ireland? There aren't any records for those (and someone will correct me if I'm wrong!)

The Ancestry incoming passenger lists are for journeys originating outside Europe.

Ian - have you looked on the 1901 Irish census to see if they were still in Ireland then? (I guess you're trying to work out when they came over?)

Ian

Ian Report 8 Nov 2011 20:34

Hi Jax
I have taken a look at this report but I still cannot understand where the Irish connection fits in.

Yes I know that Ian, but the one you suggested that I posted, married in 1898 so it is not the one born in Ireland.

Hi could anyone please help by doing a military look up for me.
You will see from my previous questions I am trying to locate some family details for a George Bankcroft / Bancroft born I believe possibly in Ireland, on his Daughter Lily's marriage certificate in 1904 it gives George as being a Soldier. they married in Stockport
