  Recorded as Jerzy Israel Chanciner, aged 42, born 1905, Polish, single, on the passenger list of a Transcontinental and Western Air flight from Paris (aircraft NC 45343) that arrived at New York on 7 October 1947 — New York arriving passenger and crew lists, 1820–1957, held by the National Archives and indexed on Ancestry.com. The birth year agrees with the age of 35 recorded against this line in July 1940, and the nationality with the register's; the surname is spelled with an a where the register has an e. The record is seven years after the visa and says nothing about the route he took in 1940–41. Found by David Rosen, September 2026; the scan is Ancestry's and is not reproduced.
