Grandfather was Bronislaw Krajczynski...He was born Dec. 1, 1887,93,94 or 97, in Ostrowo Budy, Russia.....His draft papers say Oct. 1, 1879.....Go figure....... His immigration papers say he arrived Ellis Island May 19, 1905 and came to Cleveland, Ohio...It says he came out of Hamburg, Germany on May 5th on the ship Graf Walersee????????Can't read the exact spelling of the ship, and can't find the records of his arrival...
Hey everyone...Thanx for the humor...This Krajczynski can not be the one I am looking for...The papers for the one I am looking for says that he came into New York on May 19, 1905, bound for Cleveland. I recently found his brother's papers and they say he came from "Ostrowo", and do not mention "Budy". Further research notes that "Budy" can mean a clearing in the forest/marsh. So, maybe I am looking for "Ostrowo"....
P.S. Is the correct spelling of this ship really "Graf Wallersee", as bookratt stated???
