First, my apologies to the List for the double posting. I had problems with my gmail settings and thought my original didn't go through, so I re-sent the message.
Howland, In response to your question: "Do you have passenger lists for leaving the U.S. too?" I wish I had those lists. So far, I haven't come across a resource for this type of information. Suggestions welcome. If the family went back to Europe and returned with another family member, I would enter an Immigration event for that family member. As for the rest of the family, using the Travel event with the passenger list as my source seems right.
