List of Passengers
This page is a full-text transcript of the Passenger List for Caronia's first North Cape Cruise starting from New York on 03 July 1951. It's transcribed from British Immigration records listing only those who completed their cruise in Southampton.
Unlike information transcribed from published lists, only passenger names are recorded here. Should a published list come to hand, this list will be conventionally formatted and indicate those who disembarked at Southampton.
Notes
- While it's easier to place married couples together from this Manifest, it's possible that some females are wrongly listed as “Miss” instead of “Mrs.”
- Passengers with ¶ suffix are listed here, but for reasons not given, their entry has been crossed through. This could be for any number of reasons, including disembarking elsewhere, or even becoming deceased. They are counted within the total. The lists would have been prepared several days ahead of arrival
- Several of the Cruise Staff names are crossed through, hinting that maybe they were on a tour abroad or were to head straight back to New York. They are not counted within this disembarkation total
- The return fare to the USA would have been part of this cruise
