Yes, LGO, of course you are absolutely correct, about the parking, too! I said that about Philadelphia because that's what the librarians told me. They were probably thinking linerally. Maybe they've never been to a FHL, who knows? There's a Family History Library right in my town and I would have gone that route if not for the "Germans to America" series. One of the major things I wanted to know by seeing the manifest (that castlegarden.org doesn't tell you as yet) was who my GF traveled with (if it compared to family legend, etc) and the series does list passengers in the same order as they appear on the manifests. 1891 in this case. But I couldn't tell if he was traveling with the people near him on the list until I was pondering over all the US censuses my GF's listed on and I finally realized that by 1910, he was living 2 doors down from the family just before him on the mainifest! Now i just have to figure out why. The wife could have been another sibling - it's been hard, but I'm finding more that also showed up in Cleveland. Or my GM's sibling - yet ANOTHER candidate for her surname? It's all so confusing! But thanks for your suggestions and support - keep 'em coming!!!

Why would you have to make that trip to Philadelphia? You can order those microfilms through your nearest LDS Family History Center. Unless you live incredibly close to NARA Philadelphia, I would bet there's a FHC a lot nearer to your home. I would even bet you don't have to pay for parking at the FHC! :) Good luck, LGO ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to PRUSSIA-ROOTS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message _________________________________________________________________ Get a preview of Live Earth, the hottest event this summer - only on MSN http://liveearth.msn.com?source=msntaglineliveearthhm
