I am on a fishing trip to see if I can find what happened to my 2x GGrandfather. (I have these moments)
Okay heart sink moment.
George Pye sometime Pije or Per, possibly from mistranscription (Jorge and Jose) appears to have been in Chile from approx 1848-1861, he may have been there longer but his wife and children return to the UK as a widow in time for the 1861 census.
I have searched familysearch for a death with no success, but I have come across some Ancestry worldwide hits but I do not have a worldwide subscription. Would someone kindly look these up please.
I’m afraid all I have is this.
George Pije Immigration and travel New York Passenger list 1820-1957 arrival New York
And George Pije US city directories 1821-1989 residence Kansas.
I would like to be able to at least know if these can be discounted.
I can give no clues as to his birthdate, but a newspaper report and marriage certificate indicate he was practicing as a surgeon in 1843. I know that not all surgeons were actually trained, but many others in his tree were authenticated surgeons. Sadly for me he emigrated before the first medical record books and I have not been able to find him on the apothacaries and others lists.
Dogged determination and in the end luck eventually found the son, but I am still stuck with the father. If you have any ideas please let me know. .
Many thanks
