However, I went to the original image and have a different interpretation. I think he was going to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The person who was meeting him, or whom he was meeting, was his brother, perhaps "Max". Now, for all the good that did, Wilkes-Barre has an Alexander Street, where I did find people living in the 1910, but in the 1900 it looks as though the enumerator didn't choose to put down the street names. There were several surnames that matched, but no "Max." Also on the manifest, you will see above August, one Kasimir Kuipownicisz (excuse the spelling, there may be a way to clarify that. He is 22, also from Lessi, and going to Wilkes-Barre, meeting his cousin Kasmir Lansdorf (or similar). By the way, the Ellis Island says they are from "Sotri" But it sure looks like "Lessi" to me. Not that I know anything about Poland, and since the Polish alphabet is not anglicized very well, who knows what it realy is. Anyway, I was unable to get farther with the census, and have to leave now, so I wish you the best of luck with this.
