Thats funny he was in a workhouse in St Asaph around that time and when turned 18 went to the states.
He was born 1841 and was in the workhouse till 18 so work it out?
Ok might have to eat my hat here? although some sites say he was at the workhouse till 15 and some say 18? it would seem he stayed with his grandparents (Address unknown) it would seem he embarked on his journey to the states from Liverpool so he either stayed at that address for 2 years or he found that Liverpool was the nearest seaport to stowaway on a ship vound for the states?
