David Long, 63, Diamond Street, Brooklyn NY a SILVERSMITH which I think is him - on arrival in 1898 occ listed as jeweller and when he returned to Ireland he was in jewellery business. Again much thanks for your efforts. Is it unusual I cannot find the births of his 2 sons? Regards Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
