where i can find out when sombody arrived in england from america?

my great great grandfather was a native american from the sioux tribe, but i cant find any information about him before 1878 when he married my great great grandmother. i have his father's name as a thomas harley, a surgeon???? but that is about it. my grandfather was born in 1853 his name is henry harley, indian name: little foot.

i have looked at the ellis island records but they only state when somebody entered america, not left.

thanks

karen

Have you tried Ancestry or findmy past sites?

I think they both have info immigrants and emigrants.

skwirrel

yes it only gives the same as ellis island, people arriving in new york and other states but nothing anything about people leaving and arriving here

Hi,
Incoming passenger lists are kept at the PRO in Kew,
It would be very difficult to find them without a year, Port of entry or a ships name though.
I have the same problem, I know that my grandfather came here between 1908 and 1914 and came via Liverpool, I also know that he came from the port of Montevideo in Uruguay.
Even with all this information, I still have over 250 passenger lists to look through..

My GG Grandfather arrived in Liverpool in about 1875. His name was Henry. He arrived with a brother. They were aged about twelve+.
Thire farther was an Irish emigrent to America and went from Dublin( I think ) and was a vetinary surgen. He married a Native American Cherokee lady. He may have been father to more children in America. His name was Thomas and the Cherokee Lady may have been named Caroline but I am not sure of this. I need information of my GG Grandfathers b

and another one similar
