I`m afraid that I have no more info. My gr.gr. grandfather George Washington Christopher died in Sailor`s Snug Harbor, Staten Island, in 1914, aged about 90 years. (Plot 10,Row 12, grave 31) (He had been a ship`s pilot) What may make a link is that on his death his brother Stephen Christopher of 261, Main Ave.West New Brighton, was one of those notified. (Also notified were Mrs Benjamin Christopher, Charles Ave., Port Richmond (maybe a sister-in-law) Mrs Abram Demarest of Linoleumville (sister)And Mr John W,Christopher c/o Metropolitan Life insurance Bldg, New York.) As I have no knowledge of the rest of the family in America from then on I cannot help with a link. But I can help further back if you can link up eventually. My gr. grandfather, also George Washington Christopher (b.1856) came to England and started a family here, his eldest son - also George Washington Christopher, is my grandfather. Anyway, keep what I have, you may make a link one day, the West Brighton addr!
ess looks promising!!! regards, Kathy

Staten Island is a very small place...and since I have several Christophers from that area...there is a very good chance that we can link them up somewhere.
I would be interested in any more information you may have uncovered since you first posted this. The information I have (brief as this is, sorry) is this:
Ethel Christopher b cir 1906 is my great-grandmother.
She and her sister Lillian married brothers with the last name Roberts.
Family legend has them tracing themselves back to the Christophel that settled Staten Island.
They lived in West Brighton. And from what I have found they have all been sailors or in the shipbuilding business.
