my grandmother (Jan 08 Red)
Can anyone please help me locate the Addy family? My grandmother was Jamima Addy, born abt. 1836 at Fleet, Lincolnshire, England. Her father was John, born abt. 1805, I don't know where, and her mother was Sarah, born abt. 1804, I don't know where. I do know that Sarah died of Consumption on the Ship Joseph Walker, coming to America in 1853. I was told that my grandmother and grandfather met on the ship coming to America, but he is not on the ships list that I have. There is however, a George Mervin on the same ship that I have always wondered if that could have been George Marris and he changed his name on the ship for what ever reason. The reason I wonder about George Mervin is because he was going to Cleveland and so was Jamima. I would so appreciate any information anyone could and would give me. Thank you very much. May
