Yvonne De Carlo in US Passenger Manfests

CNN is reporting that Yvonne De Carolo passed away this week. The actress was best known to younger audiences as Lily Munster in the "Munsters." Born Peggy Middleton in Canada, she and her mother eventually moved to Southern California, and the rest, as they say, is history.

We have located her in four different passenger manifests from the 1940s and 1950s returning to the states through New York. On a few of those a Constance Mac Kenzie is listed also--I'm wondering if that is her mother. Anyone who knows is welcome to fire off an email to me at mjnrootdig@gmail.com
