Herschuel, Given the Rinas family you are searching for came from the Plock
area, it is likely that the Rinas ancestry leads back to Torun/Thorn where
my Rinas ancestors lived in the 1600s.  Their migration likely was from
there to where they currently are.  Good luck in your research.

Hi
 Could someone read an Ellis Island record for me.  I have been trying to
determine the spelling of two village names in the record.  The record is on
2 pages, the first page shown and the previous page.

The record is for Adaline Rinas age 19 immigrated in 1912.

Adaline's last place of residence is listed as Scoiniar, Russia.  I am not
sure if the record is as listed.

Her birth place on the previous page is listed as Dobrrychow.

I cannot locate a place like Scoiniar in Poland (Russia).

There are several similar names for Dobrrychow.  I am reasonably sure the
two villages are near each other.

Adaline Rinas's last residence was with a Kopp.  She was going to Adolf
Kopp, Chicago.  Do the names sound familiar to anyone?  Family story is that
she was an orphan.

Any help is appreciated.
Herschuel Howell
