Transcriber's Notes:
*The numbering system employed is that of the transcriber and not of the lister.
The original document consisted of two pages, each numbered 1-30. Lister used
these numbers and at times partially filled a page. Transcriber numbered
consecutively.
*Place of last residence: At bottom of manifest page: "The last country in which
alien resided with the intention of remaining as long as one year shall be the
last permanent residence regardless of length of actual residence therein"
A ? indicates letter or letters which could not be read because of the quality
of the document. The parentheses is used to add comments of transcriber and to
clarify where necessary - they were not that of the lister himself.

Correspondence 01/11/03 passengers 1204-1207 Conlon and 1191-1194 Lyons
Delia Conlon and her children (1204, 1205, 1206, 1207), as well
as those of Cecelia Lyons (1191, 1192, 1193, 1194).
My mother recalls her Aunt Delia as having a very soft voice and a
beautiful Irish brogue. She also recalls Aunt Delia as being very short
-- less than 4' 11". Delia's husband Frank was my maternal grandfather's
older brother. 1931-1933, my grandfather had built a summer cabin in
northern Wisconsin (which still belongs to the family). Frank and Delia
visited while the kitchen (complete with wood stove and water pump) was
being built. Delia was asked how high the counters should be, and she
responded logically for herself - a short person. As those low counters
are still there (causing today's adults to stoop and bend), it's become a
tradition to have the shorter children wash and dry the dishes!
The three children on the manifest are Delia's oldest; she went on to have
4 more: Rita, Bonnie, Francis, and a baby who died in infancy. Francis
was a soldier, and was killed in World War 2. Delia must have been a
brave person, for she took a babe in arms to Ireland and back. Her second
daughter, Leona Katherine, was named for Frank Conlon's youngest brother
Leo (17 when Leona was born) . She never liked the name Leona, and later
insisted being called by her middle name, Katherine. Leona Katherine
Conlon died in 2001 in Naperville IL as Katherine Opelka, and is survived
by her daughter Cathy Opelka Santogrossi. Chris Novak
