JewishGen Discussion Group #JewishGen Help Reading Town Name on Shipping Manifest #general


Deborah Scheimer
 

Dear Genners,

I was wondering whether anyone could read the town name in the
far-right column on line 3 of the manifest at this URL (manifest for
Schiman Rudiak on 7 Jan 1909):

http://www.ellisisland.org/EIFile/popup_weif_5a.asp?src=%2Fcgi-bin%2Ftif2gif.exe%3FT%3D\\\\192.168.100.11\\IMAGES\\T715-1185\\T715-11850290.TIF%26S%3D.5&pID=101504100003&name=Schiman%26nbsp%3BRudiak&doa=Jan+07%2C+1909&port=Trieste&line=0003
[or http://tinyurl.com/kwm2p5a --Mod.]

It looks like the town name is a 2-word name, but the transcribed name
of Wolaskic Mecherynce does not appear in the JewishGen Gazetteer or
Communities Databases.

Thank you for any help you can provide!
