Greetings,

How complete are the Castle Gardens Lists?

I am looking for Wolfgang Raith who according to his Declaration of Intent
arrived in New York in October of 1888. I know that he came from Ried am
Haidstein, Koetzting in East Bavaria.

No success as of today.

1) I know the name could be misread by the scribe.

2) I know that the arrival year was one of the most misremembered dates on
census information although he filed Declaration of 1892 which is only four
years out. Seems to me to file the Declaration in a court he would have had to
have good information.

3) Is it possible that his ship is not yet in the system?
