  • Notes 

    • JOSEPH DENMAN 1894-

      Joseph DENMAN was apparently born Joseph DOWSE. He appears thus as an 11 month old infant in the ship's manifest of the Teutonic on 31 July 1895, i.e. born in August 1894, but by the time of the US Federal census taken on 7 April 1900 he is called Joseph DENMAN and his date of birth is said to be August 1893. The second son listed, Cecil DENMAN, was said, correctly, to have been born in December 1894, a difference in their ages of 16 months. Such a difference in age would not have necessitated the deception outlined by Douglas WHITLOCK following the adoption, unofficial or otherwise, of Joseph DOWSE by the DENMAN family (see Notes under Joseph Doral DENMAN) and is clearly a mistake.

      The ship Teutonic arrived at New York from Liverpool on 31 July 1895. The manifest shows the following family from Grangetown, Yorkshire, who travelled steerage class and whose destination was Racine, Wisconsin:
      Joseph DENMAN, aged 29, boot salesman
      Emily DENMAN, wife, aged 24 years 11 months
      Ethel DENMAN, daughter, a child aged 3 years 11 months
      Cecil DENMAN, son, an infant aged 7 months
      Joseph DOWSE, an infant aged 11 months
