Title: 1913 passenger list look up
Post by: lorrainec on Friday 07 January 11 13:32 GMT (UK)

Hello!
I am looking for Esy Sackston/Sackstein who emigrated to Canada 1913 (according to the 1916 Prairie census) from Russia.

He went to Saskatchewan then settled in Winnipeg, Man.


Any help is wonderful!

Thank you - yes I have this.  It is where I found his emigration date. Still looking for the passenger list or immigration card for Esy.

Thanks!

I have found on the Winnipeg City directories for the 1920-1940's that our Esy is listed as Sackstein.  Unfortunately, still haven't found him on any passenger list!

Hello,

Here is his naturalization information.  I actually found the "low resolution" option easier to read.

And the Western Land Grant

Kitty, that's wonderful!

I have also learned thathe came to Canada under a different name: Anton Pekulin,

This is great!

Now, just to find his marriage to Tania Freedman/Friedman (maiden name) or Mitkovski (previous husband who died in 1914).

Thanks so much!
