Transcriber's Notes: *The numbering system employed is that of the transcriber and not of the lister. The original document consisted of two pages, each numbered 1-30. Lister used these numbers and at times partially filled a page. Transcriber numbered consecutively. *Place of last residence: At bottom of manifest page: "The last country in which alien resided with the intention of remaining as long as one year shall be the last permanent residence regardless of length of actual residence therein" A ? indicates letter or letters which could not be read because of the quality of the document. The parentheses is used to add comments of transcriber and to clarify where necessary - they were not that of the lister himself. Passenger 548 begins the steerage passengers through to the end of the Manifest. The following passengers had "Non Immigrant Alien" stamped in Col.10-Last Perm. address: 645, 666, 673. Recapitulation: First Class 79 Aliens 127 US Cit. 206 Total Second Cabin 237 Aliens 104 US Cit. 341 Total Steerage 739 Aliens 94 US Cit. 833 Total 1380 Total Passengers It is worth noting that Passenger 55 was famed author W. Somerset Maugham (1874-1965), best known for his novel, "Of Human Bondage". Correspondence 5/02/01 passenger #648 Sloane Thank you very much for printing the records of the Caronia! My grandmother is #648, Annie Sloan(e). I had found the record in the Los Angeles LDS library about 10 years ago, but just located the record on the internet 2 days ago. Annie's father was actually Patrick, not Hugh. She was 19, not 17. Born in Newry, Co. Down, not Kilkeel. She settled in Brooklyn, married Herbert Swailes of Tavistock, England and they had 5 adult children: Mary, James, Kathleen, Elizabeth, and John. Died October 1965, West Islip, NY, age 74.
