I have been adding to some of your profiles. And I think I just found the ship they came over on. Are you on Ancestry? If not maybe I can take a small snip of the document and post it on Johns profile for you. Looks like there may have been more children on the trip, Hubert 7, Anna 5, Maria 4, Michael 2, John 2 months. And also Hubert Yost age 62, Also on the boat is Peter & Margartha Thoma? and their child Gertrude. Very hard to read. They arrived New York 7 of Jun 1879

Thank you very much Terry, feel free to add anything that seems correct.

I am not on ancestry.com and yes, i would love to see the document there. I know only that the Thome's were cousins and possibly in laws, there are already a passel of kids listed. that is not uncommon for the period shown.

Catherine Yost is my future Great Grandmother, her daughter Julia married John Krizenesky in 1915

Answer 1

John

Can you link a profile? No one can do that broad of a look-up. Both those names are there. Just figuring out which one you need is the problem. Names, towns, years would be helpful.

I am primarily interested in Lejeune-281 (https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Lejeune-281) The crossing referenced in the bio for a departure point and the date of departure is based soley on heresay and conjecture. and, I am grasping at straws from a brick wall with MacDonald-4621(https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/MacDonald-4621

with regard to Douglass MacDonald; an ambiguity exists with his birthplace on the marriage license from Kalispell, MT  showing Aberdeen and then his death certificate showing Bangor, ME

I am coming up empty so far in Maine for him and his father Malcolm. One document lists his mother as Nest Douglass and the other lists her as Mabel, not sure what to make of it.

Thank you very much Mr. McClintock   - John K

on the 1930 census it says he is from Scotland with an immigration date of 1884. Have you checked on that?

I must have missed that, Is that an Idaho census? I will look into that. Thanks
