need help deciphering handwriting on manifest

Post by dmt1955 »

the board would not allow me to upload the .jpg of the manifest, stating it has reached its limit.....so, this is the URL.....

http://www.ellisisland.org/EIFile/popup ... &line=0010

it is on line 10 - Angela Purcaro....the spelling of her husband's first and last names (far right columns)

what i read after Husband is 'erigganese' or 'criggianese' and then the first name.

any help is greatly appreciated. i appreciate the extra effort of going to the URL.

thanks,
donna

once again, pippo, i appreciate your help. i looked at the manifest again and I would never have thought that letter of the last name to be a "T" !
