Some Steinschönau Arrivals at Ellis Island

Paul Ptacek (http://czechcensus.tripod.com/) provided the following from the Ellis Island website (http://www.ellisislandrecords.org), a tool that he uses frequently for identifying people who emigrated to this country from a specific town or village. He puts in several letters of the town name in the search form and it will came back with all of the people listed as coming from that place. Of course the people who transcribed the Ellis Island records made a lot of mistakes so Steinschonau showed up as Steinschonan, Steinschonaw, Steinschsnan, Steinshonan, Steinsitonia, Steinshonae, etc. He has used a similar list for Frysava for my website of that village ( http://frysava.tripod.com ) and has found that such lists help researchers discover where their families are actually from.

Paul said, “You'll notice a lot of the names (with horrible transcriptional errors) for the researchers listed on your website in the "Steinschonau Arrivals" file. For example, Else Niedtner (Sean Curry's ancestor) is listed as Else "Viedtner" from "Steinschanase". In this way, you can find people on the Ellis Island site even if their names were transcribed incorrectly.”

Thanks Paul for this great addition to the website!
