Thanks, Robert! I tried this one, and it says, "John Buivydas, arrived as Jonas Bugwidas," and it gives the ship, etc. However, I have already identified the passenger record for John, and examined the manifest, and it does not match in any way with the record for Jonas Bugwidas, when I look him up on Ancestry. Bugwidas left from a different port, different ship, etc. It doesn't seem to be my John Buivydas. However, I will play around with this some more. I also sent a FOIR for his FBI file, as he was an active member of the Communist Party, and a union organizer and writer for a Lithuanian daily. Maybe, just maybe, I will get some info from that, but I am not inclined to think they would put his date and location of naturalization. Any other ideas for finding his naturalization?I'm trying to get every scrap of information I can, and will then hire a researcher in Lithuania. I have a few DNA cousins over there who already have extensive family trees. I just have to connect them. Then, I will try to start scheduling visits to some archives which have copies of the publications he wrote for.

Q: Where can I find a copy of a birth cert from about April 1910? A: NYC Dept of Health...125 Worth Street> http://www.nyc.gov/html/doh/html/services/vr-birth-general.shtml Complete form for "female ESTERBY first name may be Lenora"...add name of mother, father =unknown. Say she is your great grandmother and provide some doc with ESTERBY on it. Include photo ID, $, SASE. Q: If its only atthe archives in NY is there anyone going soon who can do a look up for me? A: NYC Archives has viewable births up to and including 1909. They cannot be viewed at DOH any more. The Birth Certificate would not include lies. In 1910 is should include DOB, address of mother, parents' names, number of previous and total births Circa 1910 out-of-wedlock births were a shame to the family. Maybe they moved out of state. Or LI, Rockland, Westchester, etc &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& I'mlooking for Lenora Esterby b. about April 1910 at the Florence Mission. According to the 1910 census her single mother was staying there and Lenora was0/12 months old. Her mother is listed as Lydia Esterby but I've heard thatthese woman lied about their names and ages and I suspect that Lydia might be myIda Esterby that I've been searching for. I don't know if Lenora's birth certwould provide any more info but I thought I would try. I can't find any info ona Lydia Esterby before or after this 1910 census. I can't find anything onLenora after this census either. Its very possible she was put up foradoption. Thanks. [email protected]

No clue why Applications and Claims Index, 1936-2007 is just an index and no images. It does contain SS number, birth place and parents but no address SSDI does not contain the SS number.

I would not expect it to include any actual search indexes. Rather I would expect it to include information as to what indexes exist and where to find them, as well as what original records exist and where to find them as well. When I asked yesterday, I was told that they expect it to be published by the end of this year. -- Mary On 9/19/2015 3:03 PM, CW Marshall via wrote: > This is great news! Thanks for sharing Mary.
