Did anyone notice the passenger's name on line 22?
Maybe I'm wrong.. but would like an opinion of the passenger on line 22...
Looks like Del Grosso Antonio to me..or something very similar. Doesn't look at all like Barrasso.....I'm sure you would like other opnions though so hopefully others can give theirs.
NOT line 22......but line 24..........
and yes Nuccia.....line 22 does look like Del Grosso, some of the type is....
shadowed? if that's the right word for it!!!

Not your fault...its ancestry's error. The line number is wrong but at least the manifest is correct, right? Impossible to transcribe this many images and not make an error. Good thing Esperanza caught it. Perhaps DebraRose might want to contact ancestry about making a correction. I have had to do this with several of my family already in the last few months.

Am hoping that DebraRose can provide us more detail first...
I read her other post about the Carpentieri family and thought it would be best to wait for her reply... no sense going on a trail that doesn't exist at this point...
The manifest image provided by the Ellis Island site is not as good as the same manifest image provided by FamilySearch. Once you have a name (assuming that it is indexed correctly) and an arrival date, you can work through Family Search to get the superior image.
If you are not already familiar with the Stephen Morse site, it is worth getting to know, as he has superior hacks (in a good way) for tracking down both immigration AND census info. I rarely use the actual Ellis Island site any more, as so much of it has been incorporated into Morse's work where the presentation is more user-friendly (at least to me). It also has a wealth of other stuff I haven't even looked into yet. I lucked out with some of his mapping (of old-time Belarus).
