John Boundy, born 1829, sailed forom Liverpool on "Isaac Webb" to NYC arrived June 9, 1854. Married Eliza Jane Ribble of State of Indiana. There were 6 children: George, Mary J., Charles, Susanna, Louis, and Emma.

His brother William Boundy followed 3 years later. William, born in 1832, married in England to Elizabeth ________. There was one son born in England, William in 1854. Five additional children were born in US: Elizabeth, John, Samual, Joseph, and Anna.

William, wife and son sailed on the "Dreadnought" to NYC arriving May 19, 1857.

Family legend says that Elizabeth returned to England for visits about every 5 years. We do not know that as a fact.

Both families settled for a time in Peach Orchard Illinois. John and family later moved to Golden City Missouri.

I do not know if any of these name connect to people left in England. Sometimes sons or daughters are named after their grandparents.

Thank you for your help.
