Tuscarora


Unknown Port to Philadelphia
8 November 1848

There is not a Statement, Sworn Statement, or Manifest Statement for this ship. Therefore, the Captain is unknown as well as the departure port.
Columns represent: passenger name, age, sex, occupation, and country in which each passenger belonged. The passenger list column for passenger sex was omitted; therefore, this transcriber has tried to determine according to first name. There was not an intended country that each passenger would inhabit, but presumably the United States. No deaths were listed for this passage.

Transcriber's Notes:

* Indicates additional information noted below
^ Indicates missing letters in abbreviated names
? Indicates letters or names that are missing or illegible

There were two passenger names that had been entered and then crossed out;
 Mary Ann Scott, age 1, with the Scott family passengers 148 through 150;
 Jane (?) Beston, age 9, with the Beston family passengers 355 through 358. 
 If these two passengers died enroute, no notation was entered on the manifest.

The first page of the passenger manifest has a very dark margin which obliterates some 
of the first names, and affects passengers 1 through 29.

  2, 6, 7, 8, 21, 24, 29  First names covered by dark margin; unable to read
  3  Unable to read the letters in last name, due to poor handwriting
138  Not sure if Jane or James, since sex is missing on original manifest
161, 162  Last name could be Kasill
175  Age could be 30
199  Last name illegible; appears to be four letters ending in 'on'
212-215  Last name could be Lostsher; not sure of sex of passenger 215
238  No age listed on manifest
243  Originally name listed as Mary Wood Moore; line drawn through Wood
254  Not sure of sex, although Biddy appears to be feminine name; occupation is listed
     for male
257  Last name written as Garry; could be Grey as the following children are written Grey
313  Not sure of first name or sex
334  Unable to read first name; could be Mary
341  Name is written Mary Jane only without ditto marks; not sure if last name is Henry
     as is the preceding passenger
342-345  Last name could be Teadley
360  Unable to read last name; appears to be six letters beginning with 'P' and ending
     with 'son'


Correspondence September 6, 2007 passengers 316-323 Jackson and Glossip

John (316) and Mary (317) Jackson are my ggg-grandparents. George (320) was their oldest child at 7 yrs. old. Sarah (321) and Mary (318) were 7 yrs. and 8 mos. old respectively. All three of these children were born in Yorkshire, England. John and Mary Jackson (316 and 317) went on to have two more male children in Sullivan Co., PA: John Lyman Jackson, followed by Ben Jackson. John Lyman Jackson, the 4th child born to John and Mary Jackson and the first born here in the U.S., is my gg-grandfather. I am attaching the only known photo of John "Johnny" Jackson and a larger view of his cabin at Hillsgrove, Sullivan Co., Pennsylvania. We believe also that the Glossips where traveling with the Jacksons to connect with Ann Glossip's (319) husband who was already here. John and Mary Jackson wound-up in northern PA, in what can only be described as a rugged, mountainous, heavily forested and trackless wilderness: Sullivan Co., PA. These same conditions pretty much prevail today with the exception that now there are at least a few good roads in that area. I know the exact place of John and Mary Jackson's burial sites, as well as their then tiny 8 mo. old daughter listed as "Mary" but on who's gravestone is etched "Martha". It has been told that tiny Mary/Martha was sick and nearly died on the voyage, and there was fear she would be buried at sea. I am attaching two scanned pages from a very local booklet that was published I think sometime between 1925 and 1930. These particular pages were contributions to this locally historic publication that pertain to the immigrant Jackson family and their life after they got to where they were going; that being Sullivan County, PA. Jackson Family History Page 1 Jackson Family History Page 2 Attached also is a photo from that same publication depicting George Jackson, (aka George "Pappy" Jackson) who appears as Passenger No. 320, the 7 yr. old male along with his parents on the Tuscarora's Passenger list, Nov. 1848. Thank You so much for your hard work. It is greatly appreciated! Best Regards, Mike Clarke Muncy Valley Sullivan Co., Pennsylvania, USA
