I have been searching for my grt. grandfather and his brothers who came to the US from Scotland in 1893. - Nathan, James and Thomas McCubbin. I found Thomas McCubbin on the Etruria, but cannot locate Nathan and James. I do suppose it is possible that James and Nathan came over separately from Thomas. I do not find them on the Ellis Island lists. Does anyone have any ideas how to find out when and how they came over?

Hi Linda, You might want to recheck the census data on Nathan McCubbin as the 1900 through 1930 US Census for him indicates three different years of immigration, 1890 - 1893. In the Ellis Island database there are seven different James McCubbins emigrating at different times. We don't know his approx. year of birth though to distinguish if one of the seven could be him or not. They may have come with other relatives? Using Dr. Stephen Morse's web page might help - http://stevemorse.org His "One Step" forms help to narrow down the possibilities both for Ellis Island and Castle Gardens. Other information is available too for the One-Step process he developed. Best regards in your further research, Kathleen _____________________________________________________________________ --- Linda Call <lindacall@mail.fanninelectric.com> wrote: I have been searching for my grt. grandfather and his brothers who came to the US from Scotland in 1893. - Nathan, James and Thomas McCubbin.
