[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Response: DonnamarieBoyer--Surname: Kons

[Jennifer K. Walker]

> DonnaMarie,

I don't know that I have any answers for you, but if you're having 
difficulty locating your family's records through Ellis Island, you 
might want to check and see if they came through Baltimore.  My family 
came through Baltimore, from Volhynia, on the ship "Chemnitz," and 
settled in southwest Michigan.  You can also check for many records of 
ships through ancestry.com.
