On October 11, 1921 my cousin Lewis Swezey was returned to his hometown of Patchogue after being disenterred from France, shipped to the USA on the steamer "Wheaton", and moved from Hoboken to NYC, then via the LIRR. The info I received from the national archives have documents stating that he was sent out of NYC at 155PM to arrive in Patchogue, no arrival time given. One document has "via Pullman".
Can anyone provide me with period correct timetable/train number info as to the actual event that occurred? All the documents I received from the NA have no train info at all, just that he was shipped home via LIRR at 155PM from NYC.
He was received in PD by Undertaker O. W. Ruland.
Any help is well appreciated, this is going into the Patchogue Historical Society archives when the project is completed.
