She could have been hired and sponsored by someone. Just one of a few scenarios. Hermano Date: Sun, 27 Jul 2014 07:53:11 -0700 From: azores@googlegroups.com To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] emigration from Sao Jorge
Under what circumstances or conditions would a single female emigrant travel in 1896 from Sao Jorge via Terceira to Ellis Island? Would she have been in a group, with familiar people, traveling to ultimate destination (California)? We've got her passport and ship manifest. It seems that the group going to California received passports and disembarked in New York together, but we haven't found family connections between them. Also, are there any travel records (train perhaps) after leaving Ellis Island, traveling across the US? -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
