Details from passenger manifests and other indexes
30 Sep 1818, on the brig Elizabeth, from England via Halifax, Nova Scotia
with the family of John & Mrs. Douglas and their apparent children Wm, Ann, Susanna, Isabella, 2 unnamed, plus apparent servants or traveling companions Geo. Frater, Ellen Roberts, Jane Buckam, Geo. [or Bea?] Wanless, and 11 chests of wearing apparel and bedding.
--Further down the same manifest is this group:
Geo & Mrs. Clarke, Mary Amos, John & Wm Rutherford,
Geo. Wanless, Mrs. Wanless
with 8 chests of wearing apparel & bedding for the whole group.
There are also families named Cowans, Johnson, Graham on this ship, who may be relatives of George Wanless. This is undoubtedly George Wanless & his wife Esther Amos arriving for their permanent stay in Pittsburgh. I'm not sure if the first Geo Wanless listed with the Douglas clan is the same person or another George Wanless.
