List of Passengers

This page is a full-text transcript of the First Class Passenger List for Caronia's Westbound transatlantic crossing from Southampton and Le Havre on 23 June 1951. The list has been constructed from an amalgamation of Cunard's published list issued to passengers and New York US Immigration records.

Important Notes

• As with crew lists assembled from this source, not all the information, such as age or place of birth, has been transcribed
• Annotations of title for women travelling alone may be incorrect
• Both place of embarkation and U.S. destination are shown in this list
• Immigration manifests provide reliable information about who actually travelled

Accuracy

No guarantee of accuracy can be given with regard to marital status or indeed spelling of names. In some cases the original documents are very difficult to accurately read, even under magnification. Any proven corrections will be gladly accepted.

What's Your Story?

If you, a relative or ancestor, travelled on this voyage and you have a story to tell, I'd be delighted to hear from you!
