List of Passengers

This page is a full-text transcript of the Passenger List showing only Southampton Arrivals for the transatlantic crossing starting from New York on 09 April 1953. It is transcribed directly from British Immigration records. Sadly, there's no current access to Le Havre disembarkation details from this voyage.

Notes

• It's very difficult to establish exact marital status from the Manifests, so no titles are shown unless indicated
• Everyone below the age of majority is shown with a Mstr. or Miss prefix
• Family names are listed in strict alphabetical order so people with the same family name may not all be related
• 4 passengers were recorded as cross-channel, all crossed-through and annotated N/R, so not recorded here either

Philip Drinker was a key inventor of the first iron lung, a respirator that has helped save lives, especially those afflicted with polio and other cases of paralysis. This entry shows what an unassuming man he was. If his achievement had come to light, I'm fairly certain he would have been offered an upgrade to First Class.
