Where this comes from

• The Ginyo Maru's passenger manifest — sailed from Yokohama 24 October 1940, called at San Pedro (Los Angeles) about 20 November and reached Balboa in the Panama Canal Zone on 15 December 1940 — the sheets carrying the Kornbluth, Morgenst…
  The Ginyo Maru's manifest, found by David Rosen and read in FamilySearch's index on 19 September 2026, lists Emanuel Stein, born 1905 at Kraków, arriving at Los Angeles in November 1940 from Yokohama, with Schendel Stein, born 1881, and Rosa Stein, born 1915. The compiled line has Emmanuel Stein, physician, 35 in 1940, so born about 1905, and the name occurs once on the register; the entry is his.
• "California, Los Angeles, Passenger Lists, 1907-1948", FamilySearch — index entry for Emanuel Stein, 1940: born about 1905, Krakow, Poland. Digitised from NARA microfilm publication M1764 (passenger lists of vessels arriving at Los Angel…
  FamilySearch's index of the Los Angeles passenger lists, read by the archive on 20 September 2026, has Emanuel Stein, born about 1905 in Krakow, Poland, arriving at Los Angeles in 1940. The register's compiled line gives 1905, and the two agree. The name occurs once on the register, and a Polish-born passenger landing at Los Angeles in 1940 fits the route through Japan, so the entry is taken as this person's under the archive's rule of 19 September 2026 for records from the route.
