thanks, Cheri - I looked at the immigration papers from Ellis Island and he is listed as having no years -it looks like whomever was writing down the information got the lines out of sync because it says laborer off to the right and I thought it was a different person, but it does look like he came over with the family in 1901. Interesting find!
