Subject: October 31, 1842

Dear Sirs,

I have just completed an online search for my 6 immigrant ancestors who arrived in New York City on October 31, 1842. The original Port of Departure was London. However, the online database (Ancestry.com) did not list a ship name. According to this online database, 127 other passengers arrived on the same day, so I am assuming that these other passengers were also aboard this same ship.

The original passenger list microfilm (NARA M237 - roll 51) does not show a ship name either (I checked.)

How can I find the name of the ship?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Sincerely,

Paul F. Kelly

Paul,

Attached is photo 398 which provides a full view of John Biggers' stone.
Photo 399 was a second view of the stone and the top and bottom were cropped off. The stone has inscriptions on 3 of the 4 sides and I can forward the two other photos if you would like to have them.

Best regards,
Sid & Bonnie

There was a Henry Biggers that married an Elizabeth Steede at Chipping
Norton on 13 Oct 1799. Sounds like it could be your guy.
