Could the numbers be in reference to him being naturalized? I believe they have to verify what ship they came to the US on and maybe after the immigration office verified it, they would write the number on the record. Just a guess!

Recently, it was scanned and put on Ancestry.com. When I originally found this, the person at the archives that helped me locate this document explained what the different numbers around my relatives names meant. However, I wasn't able to write notes as he was explaining the meaning. I was wondering if you could help me and explain them. My Great Grandfather, Great Grandmother, and Great Uncle are line 5-7 on this document. Can you help me decipher the notes?? Thanks, Eric Gomes Castro Valley, CA NOTE FROM CHERI: Apparently this is an American Arrival list from 1906 on the Suveric for a Victorino Gomes, a Maria Jose de Souza, and a Manuel Gomes. -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
