Charles Gregory I am looking for information on one of my ancestors Charles Gregory b. 1869 from Hampshire, UK. I have been told that he traveled to Woonsocket, South Dakota I believe sometime after 1907. He died back here in England in 1936 so I really have no idea how long he was actually in the US. Even if no-one can actually find him on any records I would still be grateful if someone would email me with information on what he may have traveled out to do in his new life. What sort of industry was available to immigrants at that time. Moira Gregory moira.gregory1@btinternet.com

Carl Busch I am looking for information on Carl Busch. He and his family lived in Woonsocket in the early 1900's. He was a member of St. Wilfrid's Church. His wife's name was Bridget (nee Shanley). I know there is a stained glass window at St. Wilfrid's that was given by the children of Patrick Shanley (Bridget's father). Carl and Bridget had the following children: Celestine (Shorty), Giles (Raymond), Pete, Catherine and Jerry. I can't seem to find out where Carl was born and when they emigrated.
