Mel, re: passenger manifest - immigrants didn't always know where they would be settling, so they often gave their destination as the city where a relative, friend, or employer was located. Just like when they agreed to work in HI - the contract was usually for only three years then they were free to move on if they chose to. As for Ermelinda, I believe that she may have also accompanied Antonio Miguel's family in 1895 on the SS Oevenum - her name, or what appears to be her name, is right below Jacinta Rosa's, on the manifest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Sunday, July 6, 2014 1:41:08 PM UTC-4, IslandRoutes wrote: > > George and Dan, thanks for the info.
