Trying to find Crosby

My Gt Grandfather William Crosby had 2 sisters, Hannah c1882 and Elizabeth c1887. One of them emmigrated to the States, but we don't know which, or even if she was married prior to going. I believe she emmigrated c1910. We believe there was a daughter Phoebe, born in the States, who may have had 2 daughters who were airline hostesses in the 60's. I've just about exhausted all resources on the web, and have only hit dead ends. They were from Liverpool/Wavertree area, and parents were Thomas and Mary. If anyone has any leads to this family across the pond, I would be most grateful

Hello Susan;

I'm a CROSBY descendant in the States. My CROSBY relations came from County Durham to the U.S. in 1872. Many relatives remained in England, so if you think your CROSBY relations came from County Durham please contact me and perhaps I can help you with some stateside research. We may not be related, but hopefully we are!

Sincerely,
Lorraine
