I am hoping someone might be able to decipher the name and address of my ancestor's nearest relative in Poland as it was listed on this 1911 manifest of the S.S. Friedrich der Grosse which sailed from Bremen on 31 December 1910 and arrived in New York on 11 January 1911. I have attached several images, trying to zoom in on the limportant lines. My ancestor's name was Bronislawa Lewkowski, she was listed on line 16.

All I can read is "Boguszewo," and perhaps after that "Trzcianne"

Thank you so much!

Kristine

Thanks -- and all of a sudden I realize that her mother's name is listed above the place, not below. Duh! It's Wyktorya Lewkowska.
