My grandfather Wojciech (William) Kozlowski born in 1879 Tobolow, Poland and his wife Eva Pawluk born in Rozdzalow, Poland came to Canada 1911. We have the ship's name as Carlesburg but apparently there was no such ship. Any information would be appreciated.

Hi Natalie, Your grandfather and lots of family arrived at Saint John, New Brunswick on 21 March 1911. They had $1,000 and were headed to Saskatchewan by the CPR railway ... three "Special" trains were laid on to carry the passengers on the inward journey. Reel Number Ship Name Shipping Line Special Group(s) Departure Information Arrival Information Remarks T-4823 MOUNT TEMPLE (CPR) Canadian Pacific Railway Co. (O): Austrian; Roumanian; Bukovinian; Hungarian; Russian; Bulgarian; Pole; German; Ruthenian; Italian Antwerp, Belgium 1911-03-08 St. John, N.B. 1911-03-21 Captain James H. Moore; quarantine: some passengers to hospital They sailed from Antwerp, so I suppose it is _possible_ that they first took a vessel from Poland to Antwerp which sounded like "Carlesburg," but I think it would have been more likely that they went by rail. If you have an Ancestry subscription you can find them very quickly, but if not, you go here to the Library and Archives, Canada (LAC) http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/passenger/index-e.html On the search page just type in MOUNT TEMPLE and the arrival year 1911 and select the March 21st Saint John arrival. You then select "View Image" and start clicking through ... there are 58 pages in the manifest. On Ancestry they are on page 20, but they only show 54 pages [they often don't include the front page or the summaries] .. so it might be around page 21 at the LAC. You can make the image bigger by clicking on it, however you will have to first hit the back button on your browser to be able to navigate through the pages again.
