Fawn, Other than the other sources already mentioned, you could just visit your local public library. Usually, a large, central library, would work best. Some of those libaries still have a microfilm section that stocks National Archives films of immigrant passenger lists. You have the date of your GGM's arrival, and, her maiden name, so, you just need to find the ships arriving in New York on that date. The lists would most likely have the parents' names first, and, any children traveling with them, following. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Wednesday, April 4, 2012 6:58:22 PM UTC-4, Fawnie wrote:
