There's one on the Ellis Island site which is free. He's going to join his aunt Mrs Convers in Mount Vernon, NY. Is that name familiar?

According to the passenger lists mentioned he was born Twining near Tewkesbury. I think the name of the aunt he was going to was Mrs Craven.
If this is the right man there are other documents associated with him such as WW1 & WW2 draft registration cards, naturalisation, etc. All give his birth date as 25 October 1889, some give birthplace as Ribble (or Ripple) near Tewkesbury.
If Carol can confirm what she is looking for, and what she already has, then will post further info.

Thankyou very much this is the man i am looking for ,i don`t know who Mrs Craven was. All i know he left England not sure if he went with anyone ,not his parents though they were in England on the 1911 census with 3 of his siblings. Reg parents were Walter and Elizabeth Bennett. Reginald was born in Twyning ,Gloucestershire ,Ripple is right next door to Twyning. I would be grateful for any information you have about him as i know nothing at all about him. Thankyou Regards Carol
