Transcriber's Notes:

*  The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original
   recorder not the transcriber or an entry to which the transcriber has
   made specificnotes which may be helpful.

?  The use of a ? indicates a letter or words that cannot be read due
   to the poor quality of the original document copy.

The column headed "Sex" are written as "M" and "F" on this list.

Passengers 1 and 2, 4 and 5, 6 through 10, and 11 and 12, have 
bracket lines connecting them, after surnames and after given names. 

Married women have "calling or occupation" written as "L'wife"

Some ditto's are written "do" rather than ditto marks.

 1 Passenger is listed as visiting her "husband Giovanni", who was
   actually her son, not her husband. Over Column 16 is written $100.
 2 Written next to name, "niece", she was actually granddaughter of
   passenger 1. Unable to read writing under the Columns 7 and 8, is
   written over and has a line drawn through it. Most other Columns 
   are blank, or have ditto marks.
 3 Piz?o, looks like Pizzo, or Pizro, Column 10 writing is small, looks
   like Potenza, no address for father, Vzo. Column 16 unable to read,
   has something written over. Columns 18 (part of), and 15 thru 27
   are written slightly below line. Column 26 could be brown or Braisn.
 4 Over number on list, is stamped "ADMITTED".  Column 7 looks like 
   no with a U (read) which seems to run into "No" (write). Column 10 
   "Syr??, is written over, and Za?le?" has ink blots over some letters.
   Column 11 ?a?lef could be Jahlef, or Jallef, but letter is not like the 
   J of John below.  Column 14 appears to be "no" but has an S written
   over it, Column 18 Serian Chi??? Co. and 508 Draib??? and ? (last
   may be ST, or 80)  are written small unable read and run, onto line
   for passenger number 5. Columns 23 to 29 are written over, though 
   some is readable, over Column 23 is Med, over 24 to 25 seems to
   read centry?, 27 to 29 appears to be something like "Presaneliting 
   or Presamlity?" - an unreadable word -then "afficting" then another
   unreadable word. In Column 29 "place" is clearly written.
   Correspondence 1/18/01 passengers 4 & 5
   Please note that passengers - 'Saif':  Syr??, Za?le - in the 
   passenger list you have transcribed should be most probably  - 
   Syria, Zahle.

   Zahle is in present day Lebanon but at the time (1913) before the 
   end of the 1st world war there was no Lebanon as it was all Syria 
   (albeit occupied by Ottoman Turkey)

   I have been doing research on the Syrians who boarded the Titanic 
   and am familiar with many of the names of these villages, towns and 
   cities.  My book should be out this year some time.  Leila Salloum Elias

 5 Over number on list, is stamped "ADMITTED".  Column 2, given
   name is written over unreadable, and next to name appears to be
   "son".  Rest of columns are blurry, ditto's or blank.

   Column 19 24 and 25 are light and blurry.
 7 Line under name. Column 8 and 9 have what appears as "Clariacs"
   and Column 10 is unreadable, both seem written in different hand
   writing. Eye color appears dark, with a word written underneath. 
   Rest of Columns are light,  blurry, with ditto's or blank.
 8 Line through name. Columns 19 thru 24 are light and blurry, no height
   listed, and ditto's for Columns 26 & 27 word children written vertically
   up from line 10 to 8.  Rest of Columns are light, blurry, ditto's or blank.
 9 Line under name. Line has a dark smear through columns.  Rest of
   Columns are light, blurry, with ditto's or blank.
10 Column 6 and 7 have numbers written through them. Column 8 and 9
   appears to have "Italy, It, So" written in a different hand. Rest of 
   Columns to 28 are light, blurry, with ditto's or blank. Column 29 shows
   "Italy, Naples".
11 Column 11, and 18 ???io could be Mevio, Murro, Minro, Ninro, Niuro,
   and in Column 18, Husband ?io could be Fria, or Jia. Column 26 could
   be brown or Braisn.
12 Line through whole entry, difficult to read. Written next to given name
   is "son". M???o, looks more like Murro, but could be any of above (line
   11).  Column 8 and 9 have what appears as "Clariacs", and Column 10
   is unreadable, both seem written in different hand writing (as line 7).
13 Line is partially cut off for Columns 1 through 12.  Baddo??? appears
   to be Baddoier hoewever Column 11 is clearly Baddani, Geor??na,
   letters lighter than the rest of name, unreadable.  Column 10 is
   unreadable, scribbled over. Column 18 Brother Badd??? appears written

  Passenger 1 and 2  are my family.  Teresa Ficano Lo Pinto is my bisnonna or 
great grandmother, and Teresa Lo Pinto is my aunt (father's sister). My bisnonna 
was born 14 Nov 1848, and died 31 Dec 1941 in Begheria, Sicily, Italy. Her parents 
were Giovanni Ficano (born 1808) and Antonina Maggiore (born 1816). 
  Teresa's husband, Francesco Lo Pinto, was in the Bersagleria of the Italian 
Military.  Each of her three sons were born in different comunes (towns), she 
may have followed her husband on his tours of duty?  
  Her 3 sons came to the US: Giovanni, with his wife Anna Grassi, (my nonno 
e nonna, grandfather and grandmother) in 1899; Federico, in July 1900; Guiseppe, 
at age 15, in September 1900, on the SS EMS with his parents.
  Giovanni was a doctor; Federico, a Pharmacist, both trained in Italy. Giuseppe 
became a Pharmacist in the US.  Little is known of Giuseppe, other than he 
married Elisa Somma between 1908-1913. 
  Teresa is listed in the 1910 NYC census, at her son's residence, Mulberry
St, NYC, as a language teacher, age 62 and a widow.  Not noted, how long she 
was in the country. Giovanni and Anna are listed as living here 10 years. 
Stories go that Teresa was a very strong willed woman (for those times).  A 
true matriarch, she felt free to assert herself to her husband and sons! 
(Possibly because her family's wealth, owners of large olive groves.) My 
father's sisters talked of visits to Italy, and staying in what they called 
"the Mansion", with many beautifully furnished rooms.
  We know Teresa often took one of her 5 grand children to Italy for a summer, 
and returned with them.  This particular trip, was a return from Italy with 
her granddaughter Teresa, age 9, my father's older sister.
  Thus far we know of 4 trips, 1900 (with husband Francesco and son Giuseppe 
on the EMS, which lists her as Giovanna), in 1913 this ship, in 1929 
SS Vulcania, and her last voyage in 1939, at age 91!  She may have left Italy 
out of Naples, because she had family and/or friends there.
  Teresa notes a brother, Rosario, living in Naples on this ships manifest,
and in Palermo on the Vulcania manifest (recently posted in ISTG).
