Hi I looked on Ellis Island Archive site and found a Alice Flo Beston immigrated to America in 1919. She went to join a friend Miss M Vickerstaff who resided at 231 N Maple Ave,East Orange. She was single at the time. She was born in London. The record does go into more detail about her but that is the essance. Visit: http://www(.)ellisisland(.)org/ Hope its her Good Luck George

On ancestry.com there are 2 matches coming up for Alice Beston in the 1920 American Census. Might be worth asking someone else to send you the details. George
