I think Michael on the US census is actually Mark.

There's a Foster family arriving Philadelphia 28 Nov..1853. They consist of:

Sarah, 34
Thomas, 12
Mark, 10
John, 8
James, 5
Robert, 3
Sarah, infant

No husband with them. I presume he was already there? No Michael with them either. Already there with father?

Hello, On the 1860 census for: E W Of The Borough Of Tamaqua, Schuylkill, Pennsylvania, United States (this is from Family Search) I have the following -
Household Gender Age Birthplace
Sarah Foster F 43 England
Michael Foster M 17 England
John Foster M 15 England
James Foster M 12 England
Robert Foster M 10 England
Sarah Foster F 8 England
Mary Foster F 5 Pennsylvania
Isabella Foster F 3 Pennsylvania

On the 1861 census for Blyth, Cramlington Colliery, Northumberland there is the following -
Sarah 43 North Shields
John 16 Cramlington
James 12 Cramlington
Robert 10 Newsham
Sarah 8 Newsham
Isabella 4 Overseas British America
Mary Ann 6 Overseas British America

I am wondering if Michael stayed in America. Unfortunately, I don't know who Sarah's husband is. I am assuming he died in America as it says Sarah's status is W. I would think he was a miner as Tamaqua is a coal mining area. Thank you.
