Hi I was just wondering if anyone has access to the Immigration & Naturalization Records for North America on Ancestry. I am a full Uk and Ireland member with full access but am looking for someone who I know emmigrated to California, USA (dates unknown). I know that her name was Sheila Martin or Leadbetter and was the sister of either my husband's Great Grandmother or Great Grandfather born circa 1870. I have searched for a Sheila Martin between 1885 and 1930 in California and have had one particular result: Immigration & Naturalization Records 1 matches | info San Francisco Passenger Lists 1 If anyone is able to look this up for me I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you Gaynor

Sorry no, it isn't the right one - we think our Sheila Martin was born circa 1870, at least that is around the time when her brother / sister was born. She could also have been Sheila Leadbetter because we aren't sure whether she was Great Grandmother's or Great Grandfather's sister .
