Migration of the Beckering family

Families began migrating abroad in enormous numbers because of the political and religious discontent in England. Often faced with persecution and starvation in England, the possibilities of the New World attracted many English people. Although the ocean trips took many lives, those who did get to North America were instrumental in building the necessary groundwork for what would become for new powerful nations. Some of the first immigrants to cross the Atlantic and come to North America bore the name Beckering, or a variant listed above: A. Baring, aged 40, who arrived at Ellis Island, in 1893; Alex Baring, aged 60, who arrived at Ellis Island from London, England, in 1908; Alexander Baring, aged 59, who arrived at Ellis Island from Hythe, England, in 1907.
