I would like to find John Daniel on a ship to Galveston Texas in 1878. He lived in Alabama at the time of migration so I am not sure where he would have sailed from. Marjorie Ferrin

Graham The Toronto Globe and Mail also tells the story of the send off for the Olympic (Tuesday May 13, 1919). It also states that another party "sailed on the Scandinavian on Saturday for Quebec with 25 officers from London, 10 warant officers, 33 sergeants and 231 other ranks from Buxton, with their dependents, 416 wives, 150 children and 42 repatriated officers from Bramshott." On May 17, 1919 it carries the arrival at Halifax, at 3pm, story and states the Duchess of Devonshire and her daughter were on board. Regards..

Graham The Times of March 18, 1891states that the Olympic was leaving Southampton "to-day with 207 officers and 5,170 men of the Canadian 3rd Division. The men are being brought from France to England at the rate of 1,000 a day, and Sir Edward Kemp, the Canadian Oversea Minister of Militia, who is here to speed the men upon their way, estimates that by the end of this month 85,000 men will have been brought back from France and 100,000 men embarked for Canada." In the April 15, 1919 paper is noted another sailing "The Olympic, which was to have sailed from Southampton yesterday, will leave this morning. She will have about 6,000 passengers, of whom 5,600 are officers and men of the Canadian forces." Olympic is noted in the May 2, 1919 paper as sailing from Halifax on her way home to Southampton. This is followed on May 12 with this item: Canadians Homeward Bound Olympic's Start Without Tugs (note: the tugboat men were on strike) The unwonted sight was seen at Southampton Docks on Saturday of the Olympic, which is usually towed out by seven tugs, starting her voyage to Halifax under her own steam. She had on board, besides many civilian passengers, the first body of Canadian troops of the Second Division to return to Canada. The unusual manner of the Olympic's departure was due to the strike of tugboat men at Southamton. Only a combination of luck and determination enabled her to start at all. The help of tugs, though accepted by great ships as a matter of course, is not indispensable in all kinds of weather, and Commander Hayes, of the Olympic, determined, if the weather made it possible, to take the ship out under he own steam. The Canadian troops on board had not seen their native land for several years, and he said their return should not be delayed if he could help it. The decision was characteristic of the man. Commander Hayes is an officer of well-known experience and resource, which had earned for him the complimentary nickname of the "Fox of the Atlantic." During the war he has made 34 voyages and has carried troops numbered by the hundred thousand. On one occasion the Olympic encountered the dangers of a minefield. But, Commander Hayes has brought his ship successfully through every difficulty, and all this has been done in a remarkable spirit of selfreliance. The Olympic has never been convoyed. Thousands of townspeople, with the Mayor of Southampton at their head, had gathered at the docks, and cheered again and again. The great vessel itself was crowded from end to end with Canadian soldiers. The total number of officers and men on board the Olympic was 5,600. The commander of the division, Major-General Sir Henry Burstall, was present to bid them farewell. Among the troops were men belonging to practically every part of British North America, from Nova Scotia to Vancouver. Their war service dates from September, 1915. More than half the Canadian troops have now gone back to Canada. There were four fighting divisions in Europe at the time of the armistice. Of these the First and Third have already returned home. The last contingent of the Second Division will embark at Liverpool on the 14th, and then there will only remain the Fourth Division. The rate at which the men are being sent home is considered by General Burstall to be satisfactory." So, your Aunt was correct -- there was a big sendoff. Regards...

My name is Delores Crew Jones and I am trying to find the name of the ship owned by Edward Crew that left England and came to the eastern shore of Maryland. He bought land and named the plantation "Fish Hall". My understanding is that he owned his own ship and left England when his father died and the eldest son claimed everything according to English law in the 1700's. Can anyone help me with this? It is possible that the place he left was named "Crew" or Crewe. Thank you. Delores

The American Line ship BRITISH PRINCE used to sail from Liverpool to Philadelphia, not New York. In April 1887, the BRITISH PRINCE arrived at Philadelphia on the morning of April 25th, so it would have departed Liverpool about 10 days earlier. The White Star Line ship BRITANNIC from Liverpool did arrive at New York on April 15th 1887, and the Cunard Line ship PAVONIA from Liverpool April 5th, arrived at Boston April 15th 1887. I decided to go looking for him at the Norwegian Digitalakivet . . pretty sure I found him He was from Trygstad and departed Kristiania (Oslo) on the 1st April 1887 on the Wilson Line "feeder ship" ROLLO to Hull, England with a final destination of "Fountain M" on a prepaid ticket. 01.04.1887 Ole Andres.

Hi, Your ship's list is MARVELLOUS. After three years I have found the merchant ship I wanted was the Tjaldur and in 1925 was owned by Skipafelagid Foroyer. I need the crew lists. Barnet (Barney) Goodman was a Deck Boy on this ship which we believe sailed for Australia c1925. Barney is said to have jumped ship. Barney was born on 2 May 1903 at 14 Tudor Place, St Pancras London. Cannot find anywhere Crew Lists except they may be on Lloyd's lists which as I understand are in New Foundland. and in the U.K. Any other ideas gratefully received. Chris Hough in New Zealand.

My grandfather came to America from Odessa somewhere between 1905 and 1910. He came with his fiancee and her father. His fiancee was Rose Fastofsky and her father was Itzik Fastofsky. My grandfather was Benjamin Spieler and I beleive they came through Boston instead of Ellis Island. I would appreciate if I could have copies of the ships manifests from those years so I can see if he was on there and to see what his parents names were. My sincerest thanks Tamar Hollandeer matzoball48@aol.com

As this is pre-1837, what hope have I got of finding a birth at sea at this time? The information I have is that John Madagascar Quinn was born at sea in 1835/36. His parents were Daniel Quin/Quinn, born about 1810 (place of birth unknown) and Mary Ann Quinn (nee Nicholson), born Portsea, Hampshire about 1809. Even John Madagascar Quinn's Naval record has 'born at sea' as his place of birth, as have all of his census entries from 1841-1901. I have absolutely no other information on they were coming from or going to, except that subsequent children all seem to have been born in Portsea. Any pointers would be gratefully received! Jo Newman
