I may have a reply.My ggg-grandfather was James Branton.He was born in 1811 in Pinchbeck, Lincolnshire, England.His father was Thomas Branton.James married Hannah Pateman, dau. of John Pateman, on 22Jan1839 in St. Mary's Church, Pinchbeck, Eng.On 16Oct1851, James and Hannah and 7 children boarded a boat listing their destination as being Milwaukee, WI, arriving there on 15Nov1851.James died six months after arriving in Milwaukee.Would this be the James of whom you refer?
I have a lot more information concerning this family if you need it.Thanks
