Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Jennie Solomon Silva Borba and sisters

1975?? Is that a typo for 1875? I was told my immigrants married in Providence, too. One was counted in at Ellis Island and the other came through Boston. They married in New Bedford. Therefore, assumptions are dangerous things. Assume nothing. Are you finding your ancestors on the 1880 in RI?
