How about this one?

Event Type: Immigration
Event Date: 1869
Event Place: New York City, New York, United States
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Nationality: England
Birth Year (Estimated): 1841

He was travelling alone, though I wonder if this has any relevance at all?

1871

Gender: Female
Where born: Manchester, Lancashire, England

She is noted as 'married'.
However it's a common name, could just be a coincidence.

Thank you Rose Idid find these 2 records. They also had a daughter Mary E Moore born about 1868 - 1870 . Found her to be in the Manchester Workhouse in 1904 with a daughter, believe she was unmarried . The family out in America are desperate to find information on this daughter Mary Teresa a Moore.

So the Mary E Moore must be Mary Emma his sister. Witness at Josephs wedding.In the Manchester workhouse she was called Polly and I found her through an address as being 58 Newcastle Street Hulme and states her friend as being what looks like Mr Haucroft but in 1871 the next door neighbour was Hobroyd at no 61 .

The Mary A Moore you found in 1871 in prison do you think it could be possible she went in after the census in Hulme

In the 1881 census I see it states Mary As Moore living with in laws as being a widow yet in the 1891 census there was a son John age 15 but he was not on the 1881 census, interesting I have found no death for Hiram a Moore in Lancashire.

Wow Rose now that is interesting the marriage of Mary Emma Moore in 1895 to James Roberts, I wonder why she gave the name of Polly Moore in the Manchester Workhouse . Feel sure this is the mother of Mary Teresa Moore who gave birth to a daughter in 1925 Leeds and was in a RC care home there

Rose I don't think the Mary Emma Roberts nee Moore can be the one but how strange that her father was Hiram Moore and a brother Joseph. I an only tying this Polly Moore up with Mary Emma Moore because of having the same address as her next door neighbour in 1871 . Just baffles me. I know Polly is a pet name for Mary

There are very few Hiram Moores, and not in that area, so I think perhaps somewhere along the line there is a mistake?

This seems to Nellie the child the child on the 1901 census of Mary Emma Moore who married Roberts, ( her father definitely Hiram) here her husband is just listed as William rather than James or John William Roberts, but the occupation matches that on the marriage cert.
