Re; Cathy Rabier, you asked about where some of "our" anscestors and the emmigration to the U.S. My family from Cevio, Ticino, Switzerland and came to the States in 1866-67 but landed on Angle Island, [ San Fransico ] Calif. My elusive anscestor then brought over four other family menbers [ siblings ]...Maybe this type of iformation can help others pin down some ports of entry for us...
