Correct me, I believe I read somewhere that when WWII began, the United

Grace,
Whoops, I meant to type WWI. I didn't look at the passaportes in the WWII
period. I was using the ones from the 1890s-1920s. At the back of some of
the books, they wrote how many people total to each destination. The books
during the WWI time period were much smaller and less people
.

They must have been on the same ship! The Madonna landed in New York City
on the 4th of Aug. and then went on to Prov. RI. May Aunt Jessie said that
they were held in the harbor in RI for 3 days because someone was ill and

My grandmother arrived in Providence on Nov. 1, 1922, from Pico.
She said she then took a train from there to Chicago to Sacramento to
Hanford. The trip from Chicago to Sacramento took
2 days. My grandfather came in 1920 and I am assuming that he came the same
way. He came right after a child of

When I looked at the passaportes (emigration out of the Azores), there were
a lot from the 1880s-1900 going to Hawaii. I saw a lot to America, and some
to Canada and Brazil. When World War 2 hit, there were much, much less
