I want to remind the group that I have an Infofile at JewishGen showing and testing a number of strategies for finding difficult passenger manifests at Ellis Island.  Some of the strategies are pretty powerful, but not well known.  I was scheduled to give a talk on this at the 2020 IAJGS San Diego Conference, now cancelled.  Perhaps if the conference organizers go virtual and I’m one of the people they pick, I can do it online.  In the meantime, I’ll include here my handout for the talk which includes more hints then my InfoFile, and contains a link to my  JewishGen Infofile: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gyj9vkpg1u1enuu/IAJGS2020Search.docx?dl=0
