Correspondence 04/27/01 passengers #41 & 42 Braithwaite
Two of my relative were on this ship No 41 William Braithwaite 
and No 42 Hodgson Braithwaite. We are in possession of letters 
Hodgson wrote to his family before and after he sailed. Both were 
unmarried and were going to America to make their fortune. They 
both travelled about a lot. Hodgson returned home to Leeds after 
3 years. William married and stayed longer.  Cath Speight
