[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Ellis Island Record Transcripts corrected

Hi Bob
 
The web site _www.ellisisland.org_ (http://www.ellisisland.org)   contains 
a contact information under "About us" or at the bottom of the page, so  I 
took my first step. Yes, it is the same address you used. I remember you  
saying that you had some problems also. However, they will only check the  
suggested correction against the original manifest and change only those  that 
resulted from errors in transcription.  No changes can be made to the  
information contained in the original ship manifest which is a historical  
document and part of the federal historic record.  Maybe the problem you  are 
talking about is more than a transcript problem but I think they should have  
responded regardless. Maybe sending one suggestion at a time with the outlined  
problem and record number.
