I tried to respond privately, Claudia, but your server was refusing 
messages from my server for some reason.  I hope this mail list message 
gets through to you.

Here is the paragraph:

"I checked the Ellis Island site for the entry of Julius but did not get a 
hit.  He may have entered through another US port or perhaps even through 
Canada.  I found an Amanda Sonnenberg travelling alone at age 15 in 1904 to 
meet up with a brother-in-law, Rudolph Elgert in Philadelphia.  Don't know 
if she is your connection or not."

To view this yourself, go to

When you find the listing, click on "Scanned Manifest" to see the actual 
information.
