I have been trying to find information about a relative Barney Stein. He passed away in Chicago, in 1943. I believe that I found a record for him and members of his familiy at Ellis island, and a section of the document has been attached. The first names of the family members were transcribed as follows: Girta, Jtrig, Leis, Schmere, Bonze, Chatzkel. Also, the last place of residence was transcribed as Tushalaby. I attempted to search for Tushalaby and was unable to identify such a location. Also, some of the names sound unusual, and I am curious if they may be a type of "slang", or whether there may be a more common form for the names listed?
