Hi June,

My great-grandmother Hannah Mary Salmons Hands, wife of John Hands, founder
of Hands Jewellers in Iowa City, came from Liverpool to New York aboard the
City of Chicago in 1884. The trip took about 8 days.

Would anyone know how long it would take a ship to come to USA from England?
In 1872. Almost forgot to mention the year. Thanks June
