On board the OSCEOLA from Glasgow to NYC, April 16,
1847, these names are together:
James Bruster, 50, farmer
Mary Bruster, 48
Jane Bruster, 20
Hugh Creelman,16
Ann Creelman, 14
M.J. Creelman, 6 mos
This simply HAS to be this Hugh Creelman and his wife Anne Brewster as the 6 month old child, M J Brewster, has to be Martha Jane, their daughter. Why they should be listed as aged only 16 and 14 is a total mystery. As are the Brewsters with whom they were travelling.
