I have finally broken down a brick wall on a family line that migrated from Scotland in 1911. I was checking Findmy past.com a UK Site and entered my Grandmother's sister and her family and lo and behold I found them arriving in Boston in 1911. Family stories had them going to Canada. My Grandmother migrated to Australia in 1913.

They were then found them in the 1920 and 1930 Census in Carlton Avenue, East Rutherford Borough County of Bergen


1920

Mathew Peacock Head aged 35 born Scotland
Georgina Wife Wife aged 32 born Scotland (Maiden name Georgina Wilson McKean.)
Marion Daughter aged 15 born Scotland
Geogina Daughter aged 13 born Sotland
Agnes Daughter aged 11 born Sotland
Isabel Daughter aged 9 born Scotland
Mathew Son aged 7 born New Jersey
William Son aged 4 1/2 born New Jersey.

1930

Mathew Peacock Head aged 44 born Scotland Shown as Married
Isabel Daughter aged 20 born Scotland
Mathew Son aged 17 born New Jersey
William Son aged 14 born New Jersey.

Unable to find his wife Georgina or Agnes

I also find with him

Mae? Alfonso aged 25 Daughter & H Married at 19 I presume this to be Marion
Mathew Grandson aged 1 6/12 born New Jersey Father born Italy

Looking at the Social Security Death Index I find 2 deaths that fit in with people listed here

1 Marion Alfonso born 3 Jul 1904 died Apr 1982 in Garfield, Bergen, New Jersey 07026. The birth date is correct for Marion.

2 Isabella Peacock born 31 December 1910 died June 1987 in East Rutherford, Bergen, New Jersey 07073.

If anyone can assist with information on this family it would be appreciated.
