Ellis Island entries for KADETSKY


These are entries of Kadetsky and similar names. If we Kadetskies are all related, then these are worth following up.
Sierpc is a town very close to Biezun and Golub Dobrzyn, and Zrjeps could be an alternative spelling. Szerpeck is in Hungary.
Abraham and Hadel Esther did not enter via Ellis Island as it did not yet exist when they came in in 1879. I have not been able to find them in Castle Garden records. We know they were in New York before moving to Boston, which was around 1880 or 81.
A bit of infomation for you dedicated genealogists in the family: CastleGarden.org offers free access to an extraordinary database of information on 10 million immigrants from 1830 through 1892, the year Ellis Island opened. Over 73 million Americans can trace their ancestors to this early immigration period.
There is only one Kadetsky there:
ISRAEL KADETSKY, LABORER aged 30 Male, arrived on 20 Jun 1871 from GERMANY Ship: WISCONSIN
They might be listed under different spelling variations. In the 1880 census Abraham and family are listed as CADESKY.

AGNES KADESKA, GENTLEMAN'S SERVANT age 26 Female, arrived 22 Mar 1889 from GERMANY, Ship: AMERICA
