Mike, I guess you would have to define what you mean by a woman first. But I'd say there was nothing typical about any immigration scenario.
I've seen some with parents (I'd call them kids or teens), I've seen some with their husbands, with an older or younger SIBLING, alone, etc. My ancestor came in 1901, aged 13, with her 16 year old sister. Their sponsor in America was a male cousin (the 16 year old later married him). Not much help :( Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada -- -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
