Isabella Craig

[RunKitty]

There is another passenger list record for Isabella Craig, father Thomas Craig of Toberlane Co Cavan.  Sept 26 1909 on the Columbia.  Departing Londonderry - arriving New York.   She is a maid.  Her last permanent residence was Ballyconnell.  She is 27 and going to a cousin, Mary Devine of Columbus Ave, New York.  It also says she has been in the US for several years before (1898 - 1906??)

Could this be the same Isabella from the 1916 passenger list?

Hi,

I think we are barking up the wrong tree with those passenger lists.  I believe that the 1916 one and the 1909 one are for the same person.  That Isabella's father is Thomas.   

Great find - the Devine's on Columbus Ave in 1910.  This should help rule out/rule in the passenger list Isabella for certain.
