Ben Armitage born Austonley, Holmfirth, West Yorkshire 1846
moved to Bradford 1870s and became a wool carding overlooker.
He was In Bradford in 1881 but missing in the 1891 census.
It is said 'Ben went to America' presumably to make a new life.
He would probably have gone from Liverpool in the 1880s, but where to? Can anyone help please.
