1/22/2003 Can anyone interpret what these given names are on an Ellis Island passenger Manifest? I don’t recognize these names. In the left image, the names on lines 14, 15, and 16 look like "Henne", "Jeil", and "Gtzits". In the right image, the name looks like "Wichne". I’d appreciate any help on the interpretation of these names.
