How can I find gr gr grandpa?
My gr gr grandma and her children came to the U.S. on the same ship. I found them easily. Her husband must have come here sometime since he’s listed on census records, but I can’t find any record of his crossing. I’ve tried alternate spellings. I’ve tried Sound-Ex. I’ve tried searching arrivals from their original village. I’m completely stumped. Please help.
What country did he come from? Have you tried searching from possible ports of departure instead of arrivals? I believe the 1920 census asks if the person is alien or naturalized. If he is naturalized, it will say the year. Once you have the year, you can start tracking down naturalization records and they will tell you all the immigration info including ship/date/port, etc. Good luck!
