Hi,In the early 1800's after the Erie Canal was built many people sailed into NYC, went up the Hudson River to Albany, took the Erie Canal to the Great Lakes and on to a number of destinations from there.Bobbi --- On Thu 01/25, < COMISHBOB@aol.com > wrote:From: [mailto: COMISHBOB@aol.com]To: genealogy.net-users-en@genealogy.netDate: Thu, 25 Jan 2007 12:21:09 ESTSubject: [GEN-EN] AUFULDISHGood morning from NE Ohio, The present spelling of my name is AUFULDISH. However, it has been spelled some 15 different ways in the US census, birth, marriage and death records. The question is:How did my relatives get from Germany to America. I believe they came from the Baden area. Examples: 1850 US census list the spelling as: ALLFOOLISH. One son, John who is listed here is my great-grandfather. The 1860 census list the spelling as: AUFFIDISH. Eventually it is spelled AUFULDISH in the census. Any suggestions of help would be greatly appreciated.Robert E.
