Ellis Island Database - Immigrants from Jagielnica

Compiled by Susana Leistner Bloch

Note from SLB : From 1892 to 1924, 22 million immigrants and passengers came through Ellis Island and the Port of New York.   The ship companies kept passenger lists called “Ship Manifests”.  Below is list of people who entered the USA through Ellis Island and listed Korolówka as their place of residence. 

Place of last residence does not necessarily mean the place of birth. It is simply the last address the passenger gave. Sometimes a person moved to a larger city to prepare his immigration papers and gave that town as last address.

Country: Galicia was part of the Austro - Hungarian Empire until the end of WW1. Any immigrant arriving before 1920 would give his country as Austria or even just Galicia. After WW2 Galicia became part of Poland so immigrants arriving after 1920 it would be Poland.

When you find an entry of interest, you can view the passenger record, the photo of the Ship and an actual scan of the Ship's Manifest. The ship manifest gives many details including the family member they joined and their address.  It also lists nearest relative left behind in the country of origin. This is a great resource for family historians.  It will often show that although the person’s last residence was Mielnica he/she might have been born somewhere else.
