My gggrandfather, Robert Dunlap, is a major brick wall.

Lambert Michael Family: Holland to NYC, then to Illinois. Arrival in 1847tag:www.genealogywise.com,2009-07-22:3463583:Topic:855342009-07-22T01:07:51.726ZSue McCormickhttp://www.genealogywise.com/profile/SueMcCormick
My great grandmother Petronella Elizabeth Michael came with her parents and older siblings to the United States from Holland (her death certificate says Hoagland, Holland). She arrived in 1847 according to census reports, which agrees with the stories she told her granddaughters. The family stayed for a while in New York City to learn English before they moved to Illinois. The family ended up in St. Louis (her father and 2 sisters appear there in the 1870 census).

My great grandmother Petronella Elizabeth Michael came with her parents and older siblings to the United States from Holland (her death certificate says Hoagland, Holland). She arrived in 1847 according to census reports, which agrees with the stories she told her granddaughters. The family stayed for a while in New York City to learn English before they moved to Illinois. The family ended up in St. Louis (her father and 2 sisters appear there in the 1870 census). Petje (her Dutch nickname — may be mispelled) and her sisters seem to have lived in the polder area of Holland (she told the girls about a canal level with the second story window of her Dutch home). She seems to appear on two family trees on ancestry.com — but as of now I don't have access to ancestry.<br />
I cannot seem to find this family entered on any of the ships that arrived in NYC in 1947. I've tried to follow the steps listed here, but I'm doing something wrong OR something else is wrong!<br />

The reason I believe the date to be pretty close was that the last child was born in Pomerania May 1869 according to church records in Pomerania and my grandfather was born 1873 in Nebraska. I have researched the dates within that period of time. Iwill keep trying. Thanks for the tip and lead. I will follow that lead.<br />

Comment My great grandfather's name is Robert Nestor Lehto. His birth name is Robert Nestor Osterlund (or Osterlunde). He came to America from Pori, Finland somewhere between 1900 and 1905. I've been thinking he came in thru Canada as the family lived in Michigan till around 1920. He came with his mother Anna and his brother. Now the really confusing thing is that his brother changed his surname to Alve. I believe his name was Rupert. Robert was born in 1888 according to the few documents I've been able to find. The earliest record of him I've found is his WWI draft card.</i><br />
<br />
Caren, I found a record of Robert Osterlund in the Border Crossings from Canada to USA. He arrived 31 March 1911 from Liverpool England on ship Corsican to Halifax, Nova Scotia. He is Finnish born ca 1889 (age 22). His father is Frans, and he is heading to Sault Ste Marie Michigan. He is alone. There is more on the image but it is difficult for me to read tonight as I have having problems with my eyes.<br />
