I agree with Bill Tarkulich that you need to do a lot of checking on the the ellisisland data, and also agree it's a great place to start. The site had a "Hehe Karas" traveling with my grandfather's first wife in 1892. However, the scanned passenger list on the site definitely said "Hone." I checked the microfilmed passenger list at the National Archives to make sure the scanned list was a good scan. The name was definitely "Hone." She came from the Rusyn village of Vylagy (now Svetlice) and this isn't a Rusyn name or nickname I've heard of. I found her birth record in the microfilmed church records. Her name was actually Anna Karas. My theory is that she had a cold or allergy and when she pronounced Anna, which should have been AH-nuh, it sounded like HAH-nuh to the ship official. My husband, who speaks German, says these sounds would probably have been spelled Hone with two dots over the "o" although the dots weren't on the passenger list. Robin in Maryland
