ship manifest deciphering

Post by mtoth1982 »

Ciao a Tutti,

Can anyone make out the words before the person that Nicola Barbetta is traveling to in this ship manifest? I thinnk it says "uncle" but I'm not sure. Any help is greatly appreciated. Also, is it possible for someone to change their age on this record? Would they want to appear older for any reason or could it be a mistake? i ask because I'm fairly certain of Nicola's DOB and this doesn't match but everything else matches.


Grazie

Matt

Nicola Barbetta, age 20/26/28 (could be any of these - the writing is difficult) was going to his uncle Biagio Barbetta at 700(?) Christian St. Philadelphia, PA.
