Karen,
I probably could answer your question of why your grandmother came a year after her parents. The cost of the voyage.

She traveled with 2 aunts and an uncle. Her parents were already here. I wish I had asked her way back when as to why her parents came almost a whole year ahead of her when she was so young. They all came in through Rhode Island and settled in New Bedford. Some stayed there for a while. Others left right away for Mendocino County in California.

Would she have traveled over alone if another family member already here? I'm trying to find a clue to connect my great aunt Francisca to my great grandfather Jose to maybe narrow down some of the search results for traveling into the USA Mike -- -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com .
