List of Passengers
This page is a full-text transcript of the Cabin Class Passenger List for Caronia's Westbound transatlantic crossing from Southampton and Le Havre on 14 September 1955. It is constructed by combining information from the list published by Cunard and the Manifests provided to U.S. Immigration.
Important Notes
- Combining two lists has provided an opportunity of more complete information
- As with crew lists, not all the information, such as age or place of birth, has been transcribed
- There were 375 passengers shown in the published Cunard list
- In the Cunard list, wives travelling with their husbands don't have their actual forename(s) included, so these have been added
- Amalgamation also means that this list gives place of embarkation and U.S. destination
- Immigration manifests provide reliable information about who actually travelled
- Names prefixed with ¶ are appended from the Immigration List, but do not appear in the Cunard List
- Names prefixed with ∏ also have an entry in the errata list
- Names placed within brackets show differences appended from the Immigration List
- The errata list shows other differences between the two lists and those who did not embark
