      In England: John Briggs Boardingham married Elizabeth (Hutchinson?)
      Had 3 children while in England:
      William Henry b. Dec 9, 1849
      Robert Briggs b. March 15, 1851
      Emma Elizabeth b. Oct. 1852
      All children were christened in Holy Trinity (Methodist), Hull or Kingston Upon Hull, England
      Harriet was born in the USA, about 1864
      Came to USA when Emma was about 3

      William Henry Boardingham Sr. married Maria?. She died Aug. 8, 1910 age 63, b. Ireland?
      Children:
      Sarah Elizabeth, April 9, 1872
      William Henry Jr. b. Jan 29, 1874 in Irvington, NY; died August 23, 1908 at 34 yrs.
      Jane (Jennie?) b. 1876 ?
      *Harriet M b. 1879 ?
      Alexanger S. ? d. 4/25/1926
      Robert B. ?
      George ?
      *Note that this Harriet is not the same as the Harriet b. 1864, sister of Emma although they lived in the same home at the time of the 1880 Census. The older Harriet b. 1864 is listed as "sister" refering to the household head, Wm. H. Boardingham, Sr. Therefore Harriet (the older) was living with her brother and sister-in-law perhaps because her parents were dead or to help with the children. Also, George does not appear on the 1880 Census although he is listed as a brother in the 1908 obit of Wm. H. Boardingham, Jr.
