From slowhands

1871 Bream /Parkend
Anna Ireland 48 Stansly, Gloucestershire, England Wife West Dean Gloucestershire
Benjamin Ireland 50 Stroud, Gloucestershire, England Head West Dean Gloucestershire
Emily Ireland 10 Cannoss West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Daughter West Dean Gloucestershire
John Ireland 14 Cannoss West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Son West Dean Gloucestershire
Joseph Ireland 20 Cannoss West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Son West Dean Gloucestershire
Thomas Ireland 17 Cannoss West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Son West Dean Gloucestershire

I have now sourced these as my gt grandfather John and gt gt Grandparents Hannah and Benjamin

I had an hour in the Record Office whilst on holiday last week and found a will made by Hannah
leaving just over £100

Bequests of
Thomas £36
Emily Jane £10 and her clothes box
John £10
Joseph £10 and he clothing apparel
and a grandson Thomas £5 (I think)

However next to Thomas seniors's name it says (in America)

I've looked on the Ellis Island website and it has given me 4 Thomas's as possibilities, does anyone know how I determine which if any would be my Thomas??
