Thank you very much for your help!
So far I can add the following:
- naturalization document of John Smigiel from 4.3.1919 said he was born 17. May 1898,
Germany, born in Lubin. His wife Mary was born 19. March 1898 in Lublin
- He immegrated with his family and arrived Baltimore 13. April 1910 with ship Cassel.
- The shiplist list Stanislaus Smigiel, 37 years old, his wife Franziska, 38 years old,
and children Stanislaus, 15, Michael, 14, Johann, 11, Victoria, 10, Martin, 8, Marie, 4
and Anna, a baby of 8 months.
The last residence in Germany was Eichenhain.
Eichenhein belongs to the parish Szubin/Schubin in Posen/Poland. And Lubin/Labunie belongs
to Lubelskie. The birth place of Alice is Lublin/Lubelskie Poland/Russia. So both are from
the same area.
And in Lublin there are a lot of catholic people. Find a grave has some records for this
cemetery with surname Korba:
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/search?firstname=&middlename=&...
In the meantime I believe, Alice was not born Korbanka, perhaps Korba and I think she was
catholic. All Korbanka were protestant.
Perhaps someone can find another document where her maiden name is mentioned. I can't
find a shiplist for her. Seems she came in 1917.
Thank you so much for your asstistance!
Greatings from Germany,
Andrea
