On a Canadian list I was directed to an excellent article on the Saint Albans Lists where many you may find how to discover where and when you ancestor came to the USA and there is no record in the Ellis Island web site or in other Port Passenger Arrivals Lists. Go to http://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/fall_2000/ and scroll to the article. Select the printable version and save to file. The printable version is in such small type, 6 or 7 points, so I highlighted the text and copied and pasted into a new document with a font of 10. The number of pages went from 3 to 7 but it was easily read by my older eyes. bob gillis bob gillis <rpgillis@bellatlantic.net>

This is what I get when I try to access the site "Sorry, but we are unable to find the file you requested". Valerie http://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/fall_2000/ "Valerie Moore" <val@cdsinet.net>
