That, is why we want experts in the project.  Experts can correctly  
interpret primary sources.
 
In this case, as you see, I said there were four Edward's who could be  
him.  It was Sam not I who stated that it must be the one listed as  Oldham.  I 
have no idea of English geography.  I couldn't tell you if  Lancashire is 
near Hampshire or on the opposite side of the island.
 
The census didn't lead me to the ship's list.  The Wikipedia article  did.  
It states that he was elected in 1931.  So I just looked for an  Edward 
Doran hoping that he would say something obvious and he did.  He  said he was a 
Member of Parliament.
 
This turned out to be an easy case.  They are not so easy.   That's why you 
would hire someone like me to do the work for you ;)  (plug  plug plug)
