My wife is Priscilla Matthews nee Priest whose relatives originate from North Curry in Somerset. We know that in 1887 the following left for New Jersey:
Mary Priest, nee Blackwell, with Phillis, Samuel, William Henry, James and Alfred.From records in Somerset it appears they left the UK on different dates, we assumed from Liverpool. Mary Ann Priest is believed to have lived with her sister Agnes Hanson for a while?
Priscilla did meet some members of the family when she visitrd New Jersey in 1975. We are having difficulty tracing any current family members of the above named. Any help would be appreciated.
