Ellis Island data on Anchestry.

Just realized I didn't have electronic images for the arrival of Cohen/Coyne in 1906, 1907 and 1920.  Searcher for them on ancestry and 1906 and 1920 were very easy to find. 1907 however, not so much. 

This was the year Ellen and family arrived.  I have a printed copy so I knew exactly what to enter in the search boxes but still, I was unable to find anything even close.  Mark Clarken and family came over with Ellen, just as Frank came over with harry in 1906, so I searched for her.

Bingo, found her right off.  When I checked the printed version at the bottom of the page, I found Cohen had become Coker.  An obvious error, once you find it.

Bethlehem

Added a Bethlehem section to the Family Events section of my website.  The Coyne and Bethlehem families were joined when John Bethlehem and Nora Coyne were marred on May 10, 1941.  Nora was the daughter of Frank Coyne and Lena Overend.
