While searching for a different Wm Searby from England I stumbled on to yours-
1900 census for Seventh Township, Santa Barbara County, Calif.-
Searby, William- age 27, born Jan 1873, married 6 years, born in England as were parents, he immig. in 1890 and was a Foreman in a Sugar Mill
------, Clara M.-wife,age 33,born May 1867, m.6 yrs, no children yet, b. Calif, father b. New York, mo- b.Louisana
By 1910 census -
in Puunene, Maui, Hawaii-
Searby, William- male, o.c.- age 40, married one time for 16 years, born England, parents also, he immig 1890, Super in a Sugar Factory
------, Clara M.-female,o.c.-age 40,m. one time for 16 yrs,6 children/ only 1 living, born Calif, fa-NY,mo-Louisanna,
------, Margaret L.-female,o.c.age 6,born Hawaii, fa- Eng, mo-Calif,
Japanese servant and boarder( couple)
note the age variation in the 2 census- maybe Clara was sensitive about being older than William and fudged a bit on the birth years?
Hope this helps-
