Immigration

Immigration

26 July 1909 ‎(Age 28)‎ Philadephia

Note: This is Vulf ‎(with the diminutive name Welwel)‎ arriving in Philadelphia on the ship SS Haverford on July 26th, 1909. He wrote that he is from Kopyl ‎(where we know his wife, Masha is from)‎, and he wrote his father is Abram Mukasey. There are enough matches to say that this is him, especially along with the census record saying that a William Mukasey is staying with the Tuckers, the naturalization record which identifies Welwel ‎(who writes he was on this ship)‎ as William Mukasey, and him visiting the Nachmanovitz ‎(his wife's sister, Gussie Garfinkel)‎

Note: This is Vulf staying with the Tuckers in 1910.

According to family legends, Vulf traveled to US with his brother Israel. However we know that this is now false. Ship manifest indicates that Israel came to US all by himself. Also we have now found Vulf's immigration records.

This is no longer a question, after find Vulf's other records, we are sure this is Vulf staying with the Tuckers ‎(no one was staying with the Nachmanovich's at 236 Cherry street, and we knew he went by William, so this is incredibly likely to be him)‎. There seems to be a running tradition of americanizing first names around this time. Entire Tucker family have done that. We know that Ike Tucker was an uncle of Wolf and there was a close relationship between Ike's family and Israel Mukasey, it is natural to expect that Wulf would stay with Ike during his visit to NY, at least for some time.

Naturalization

17 May 1913 ‎(Age 31)‎ New York

Note: This Declaration of intention identifies William Mukoshay as the Welwel in the previous record. He had a scar on his forehead and was a Peddler in 1913, which is the same career as Israel.
