Interesting! My entire STEPHENS clan, eleven in all, also emigrated in 1846, to Mt. Savage, Allegany County, Maryland which is four miles from Frostburg! The men were involved in the iron industry in the Forest and went to America to work at the newly built blast furnaces. The first iron rails made in the United States were produced by the Mt. Savage Iron Works.
I've been trying, without success for some time to find the ship's records...it never occured to me that they could have sailed from Bristol.....Thanks!
