Hi,

Those type of passenger lists between USA and Canada can be sketchy, not all were kept and
or survived.

I think this is him on the 1892 New York State census, age 30, c (citizen)

RC shrink link doesn't seem to be working for me for the moment.

Yup, that would be him.  That state enumeration was just 4 years after he emigrated to NY and was living in Brooklyn.  He eventually did very well for himself as a customs broker and with a few partners founded his own company Comstock and Theakston Inc., which is still in business as Comstock. Later I found his address on Broadway and at least for a time was living in the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.  Sounds like an interesting life!  Thanks again for your help in adding to this family story.

Thanks so much for the link.  I have added that great picture to his file.  I wish it was dated.
