Hi Maggie, Sorry I will it somethink detailed explain. I have no Baca Books, The only what I have is the Passenger and Immigration List Index CD 354. But in this example was only 2 Mikita listed there, 1899 in Manitoba. So this CD is not always helpful. I, for example search for a long time an ancestor from me, Albrecht Vladimir Hanus(sch,sh), who emigrated 1900-1902, maybe from Chotebor Bohemia. He wrote 1909, he was the 8. year in America. I did also not know his birthdate/place, because his father was by the railroad and "served" in a lot of towns and all his children are born scatters. Despite much help from friendly people at the Czech, Bohemia, Cook, AZ- lists and other, we could't find him in any Passengerlists, Cenus, City directories etc. etc. I'm sure his name must be is very misspelled, that we could't find him. After long search, we found he was born 6. Feb 1887. So I knew now he was 13-15 years old as he emigrated. So I had the hope, with this date I can find him. But now luck. I have not Ancestry or other subscription and it is not easy to search from here. I have the fortune, that I can drive to the Czech archive, when it is possible, but of the other side, I can't go to the library or can loan all passenger films etc. when I search record from Amerika. So I have searched in the Internet an library in the US, where I have maybe at least free access to AncestryPlus and Heritage- Quest. I found after long search an library, where I need not an library card and could look from home, through subscription from this library by this two. As I saw by my search, by the way this request from Joe and Jan, I have looked also right away for this names, if I can maybe help. This source for example was: New York City Immigrants (Austria, Galizia, Poland) 1890. NY arrivals Jan-Dec 1890. I will hope, I have responds your query. The spellings from the names will be always an problem. When I can something do for you please write me, but you know my source and sorry I have not more. Sorry Maggie, that I have by this occasion refreshed my problem and request to the list.
