Harrisburg, Pennsylvania—a
Popular Destination for Immigrants from Semlak
Upon arrival in America, there
seemed to be a preference of immigrants from
Semlak for certain communities in America. It
appears that their favored community was
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
One has only to look at manifests on the
www.ellisislandrecords.org site to see how the
Semlakers, for the most part, stuck together.
What follows is just a
small
sampling of their arrivals.
