Info on Miran Chordigian
I am doing some research for a client of mine on his grand father. His name was Miran Chordigian although it has been said that his surname was changed once he came through Ellis Island. Chordigian was actually said to be Tchoroukian. Miran died in 1998 where he resided in Pasadena, Ca. I have been able to find him in the SSDI with a birth date of Sept 15, 1894, dying in Feb 1985.
Naturalization papers show him in Racine, Wisconsin. According to the Naturalization papers it says that Miran was a subject of Turkey, date showing August 17,1918, but his honorable discharge says he was born in Armenia.He was honorablly discharged from the US Army November 15,1918. He was 23 when he enlisted.
I am looking for records showing him coming through Ellis Island.
Any help or leads would be appreciated...
Thank you Donna Chass
