 General Notes:
Mayra is translated as Mary in English. Mayra might be the person of the same name and spelling who emigrated from Antwerp, Belgium on the ship "Samland" on Feb 22, 1907 at Ellis Island at age 15. She was Ruthenian/Austrian by culture. If she was this one then she would have come shortly before she married in that same year.
She might have been the Mayra Zajac instead who entered Ellis Island on Nov. 22, 1905 from Breman, Germany. She was age 11, single, from Galicy (Galicia) and was Austrian Polish by culture. This would make her a bride of age 13 if she was this Mayra as they married in 1907.
