James Yeo, 1774 emigrant

A correspondent has asked for information about James Yeo, who is recorded in the October 1774 passenger list for the SS Sims, sailing from London to Maryland [note 1].

In the list, James is described as an indented servant from Middlesex, a carpenter and joiner aged 21.

If you are related to James or can provide information about him, please use the Contact Us page to send us a message.

Can you identify the master carpenter or joiner to whom James was indented and with whom he was presumably travelling?

Note
1. The source for the emigration record is the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, July 1935, page 220.
