According to the passenger list: Wm. Evan Nicholas, from Swansea, Wales arrived in New York City on June 14th, 1913. He travelled on the RMS Campania (Cunard) departing from Liverpool. Aged 26 with tattoos on both arms 5′ 9′ tall with fair hair and grey eyes. He gave his destination as his brother Thomas John Nicholas (arrived in Baltimore, Maryland, USA 18 years earlier in 1895) who lived at 77 Monitor Street, Brooklyn, NY, USA. William finally settled in Casper, Wyoming, USA
Birth: about June 1887, Swansea, Glamorgan, Wales
Was Benjamin L. Nicholas apprenticed with Richard Phillips?
In the 1871 Census of England and Wales Benjamin’s occupation is listed as ‘Tailor’s apprentice’ but it gives no indication of who the tailor could have been.
However recent investigations into the 1871 Census have identified a possible candidate – Richard Phillips.
Richard was born in New Moat in about 1830. In 1858 Richard married Hannah Nicholas who was born about 1838. Hannah’s Parents were Stephen NICHOLAS (B:1797 & probably John NICHOLAS’ younger brother) and Ann MORGANS. Which means than Hanah was probably Benjamin’s father’s cousin.
Hannah and Richard lived at Posty-draw which is a house, near Posty Farm, less than a mile from Benjamin’s family home – Holloway Fach. In the same 1871 census Richard’s occupation is listed as Tailor (employing 1 man).
I firmly believe that means that Benjamin was apprenticed with Richard who was married to his father’s cousin.
