Trying to trace a marriage of Thomas Long Eastwood (born Hull 1851) and Mary C Eastwood (don't have maiden name), but in 1891 IOM census she is recorded as being born in Arkansas. Really difficult to find out where and when they married. Daughter Mary born in British Columbia (maybe Seattle) in 1876, before coming back to England. Anybody out there able to point me in right direction? |

Do you have them in 1880/1881? Seattle isn't in BC, it's in Washington. Rose |

Hi thanks Yes, have them in Liverpool in 1881 with Thomas in Wales working. That is what is confusing - one census says BC and one Seattle! Thomas in on 1851 census, but not on 1861 or 1871. Assume he must have gone to America as a child |

Don't see them in the US in 1860 or 1870. Rose |

Thanks for trying. If the daughter was born in British Columbia, could they have been in Canada? |
